WANT in plain words
Three months to Sep 11, 2026: WANT returned −13.7% where its own daily promise gave −11.4%, 2.2 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and +3 times XLY's −2.9% implies −8.8%, which makes WANT look 4.9 points short. 2.7 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any +3 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. WANT aims to return +3 times XLY's move each day, then resets. Over one day it does that. Over longer, the daily results compound, so the total is not +3 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. XLY moved at 21% 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.
XLYX in plain words
Three months to Sep 11, 2026: XLYX returned −8.8% where its own daily promise gave −6.8%, 2.0 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and +2 times XLY's −2.9% implies −5.9%, which makes XLYX look 3.0 points short. 0.9 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any +2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. XLYX aims to return +2 times XLY'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, WANT or XLYX?
- Over the window to Sep 11, 2026, WANT finished 4.9 points from what its multiple implies and XLYX finished 3.0 points from its own, so XLYX came closer. Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about.
- Are WANT and XLYX levered on the same thing?
- Yes. Both are levered on STATE STREET(R) CONSUMER DISCRETIONARY SELECT SECTOR SPDR(R) ETF, WANT at +3 times and XLYX at +2 times the daily move.
- Which one decays faster, WANT or XLYX?
- Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window WANT’s moved at 21% annualized and XLYX’s at 21%, so WANT has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding.
- Can I hold WANT or XLYX 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, WANT or XLYX?
- WANT charges 1.00% a year and XLYX charges 0.45%, so XLYX is cheaper. Fees come from each fund's prospectus.
