TESC in plain words

One month to Sep 11, 2026: TESC returned +20.7% where its own daily promise gave +22.0%, 1.2 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and +2 times TSLA's 11.6% implies +23.2%, which makes TESC look 2.4 points short. 1.2 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any +2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. TESC aims to return +2 times TSLA'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. TSLA moved at 50% 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.

TSLL in plain words

Three months to Sep 11, 2026: TSLL returned −27.9% where its own daily promise gave −25.7%, 2.2 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and +2 times TSLA's −10.1% implies −20.2%, which makes TSLL look 7.7 points short. 5.6 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any +2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. TSLL aims to return +2 times TSLA's move each day, then resets. TSLA moved at 56% annualized over that window.

Questions people ask

Which came closer to its stated multiple, TESC or TSLL?
Over the window to Sep 11, 2026, TESC finished 2.4 points from what its multiple implies and TSLL finished 7.7 points from its own, so TESC came closer. Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about.
Are TESC and TSLL levered on the same thing?
Yes. Both are levered on Tesla, TESC at +2 times and TSLL at +2 times the daily move.
Which one decays faster, TESC or TSLL?
Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window TESC’s moved at 50% annualized and TSLL’s at 56%, so TSLL has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding.
Can I hold TESC or TSLL 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, TESC or TSLL?
TESC charges 0.45% a year and TSLL charges 0.83%, so TESC is cheaper. Fees come from each fund's prospectus.
