Which came closer to its stated multiple, AVGU or AVL?

Over the window to Sep 30, 2026, AVGU finished 6.4 points from what its multiple implies and AVL finished 5.3 points from its own, so AVL came closer. Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about.

Are AVGU and AVL levered on the same thing?

Yes. Both are levered on Broadcom, AVGU at +2 times and AVL at +2 times the daily move.

Which one decays faster, AVGU or AVL?

Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window AVGU’s moved at 39% annualized and AVL’s at 39%, so AVGU has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding.

Can I hold AVGU or AVL 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, AVGU or AVL?

AVGU charges 1.50% a year and AVL charges 1.00%, so AVL is cheaper. Fees come from each fund's prospectus.

AVGU in plain words

Three months to Sep 30, 2026: AVGU returned −15.9% where its own daily promise gave −12.6%, 3.2 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times AVGO's −4.7% implies −9.5%, which makes AVGU look 6.4 points short. 3.2 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any 2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. AVGU aims to return +2 times AVGO'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. AVGO moved at 39% 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.

AVL in plain words

Three months to Sep 30, 2026: AVL returned −14.8% where its own daily promise gave −12.6%, 2.2 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times AVGO's −4.7% implies −9.5%, which makes AVL look 5.3 points short. AVL aims to return +2 times AVGO's move each day, then resets.
