Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Are ALA and LABX levered on the same thing?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Yes. Both are levered on Astera Labs, ALA at +2 times and LABX at +2 times the daily move."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Which one decays faster, ALA or LABX?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window ALA\u2019s moved at 92% annualized and LABX\u2019s at 98%, so LABX has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Can I hold ALA or LABX for a year?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"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\u2019s move, and in a market that falls and comes back it is reliably less. ETFIQ makes no recommendation either way."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Which is cheaper, ALA or LABX?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"ALA charges 0.45% a year and LABX charges 1.30%, so ALA is cheaper.
