TSLT in plain words
Three months to Sep 11, 2026: TSLT returned −28.3% where its own daily promise gave −25.7%, 2.5 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and +2 times TSLA's −10.1% implies −20.2%, which makes TSLT look 8.1 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. TSLT 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 56% 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.
TSLZ in plain words
Three months to Sep 11, 2026: TSLZ returned −1.0% where its own daily promise gave −1.7%, 0.7 points over. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and −2 times TSLA's −10.1% implies +20.2%, which makes TSLZ look 21.2 points short. 21.9 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any −2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. TSLZ aims to return -2 times TSLA's move each day, then resets. 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.
Questions people ask
- Which came closer to its stated multiple, TSLT or TSLZ?
- Over the window to Sep 11, 2026, TSLT finished 8.1 points from what its multiple implies and TSLZ finished 21.2 points from its own, so TSLT came closer. Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about.
- Are TSLT and TSLZ levered on the same thing?
- Yes. Both are levered on Tesla, TSLT at +2 times and TSLZ at -2 times the daily move.
- Which one decays faster, TSLT or TSLZ?
- Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window TSLT’s moved at 56% annualized and TSLZ’s at 56%, so TSLT has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding.
- Can I hold TSLT or TSLZ 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, TSLT or TSLZ?
- TSLT charges 1.05% a year and TSLZ charges 1.05%, so TSLT is cheaper. Fees come from each fund's prospectus.
