FBL in plain words
Three months to Sep 11, 2026: FBL returned +21.0% where its own daily promise gave +24.0%, 3.0 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and +2 times META's 14.4% implies +28.8%, which makes FBL look 7.8 points short. 4.8 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any +2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. FBL aims to return +2 times META's move each day, then resets. Over one day it does that. Over longer, the daily results compound, so the total is not +2 times the period's move: in a market that falls and comes back it is reliably less, and in a steady run it can be more. META moved at 47% annualized over that window. That is what decides how far the two figures separate: the same fund on a calm underlying and a violent one is a different product.
METG in plain words
One month to Sep 11, 2026: METG returned +22.5% where its own daily promise gave +23.9%, 1.4 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and +2 times META's 11.9% implies +23.9%, which makes METG look 1.4 points short. 0.0 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any +2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. METG aims to return +2 times META's move each day, then resets. META moved at 36% annualized over that window.
Questions people ask
- Which came closer to its stated multiple, FBL or METG?
- Over the window to Sep 11, 2026, FBL finished 7.8 points from what its multiple implies and METG finished 1.4 points from its own, so METG came closer. Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about.
- Are FBL and METG levered on the same thing?
- Yes. Both are levered on Meta Platforms, FBL at +2 times and METG at +2 times the daily move.
- Which one decays faster, FBL or METG?
- Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window FBL’s moved at 47% annualized and METG’s at 36%, so FBL has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding.
- Can I hold FBL or METG for a year?
- Both reset every day, so the multiple in the name applies to a single day and the daily results compound. Over a year the total is not the multiple times the year’s move, and in a market that falls and comes back it is reliably less. ETFIQ makes no recommendation either way.
- Which is cheaper, FBL or METG?
- FBL charges 1.09% a year and METG charges 0.75%, so METG is cheaper. Fees come from each fund's prospectus.
