AXTC in plain words
One month to Sep 30, 2026: AXTC returned +46.2% where its own daily promise gave +48.0%, 1.8 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times AXTI's 27.7% implies +55.4%, which makes AXTC look 9.2 points short. 7.4 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any 2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. AXTC aims to return +2 times AXTI'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. AXTI moved at 109% 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.
AXTL in plain words
Three months to Sep 30, 2026: AXTL returned −26.1% where its own daily promise gave −21.7%, 4.4 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times AXTI's 19.0% implies +38.1%, which makes AXTL look 64.2 points short. 59.8 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any 2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. AXTL aims to return +2 times AXTI's move each day, then resets. AXTI moved at 158% annualized over that window.
Questions people ask
- Which came closer to its stated multiple, AXTC or AXTL?
- Over the window to Sep 30, 2026, AXTC finished 9.2 points from what its multiple implies and AXTL finished 64.2 points from its own, so AXTC came closer. Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about.
- Are AXTC and AXTL levered on the same thing?
- Yes. Both are levered on AXT, AXTC at +2 times and AXTL at +2 times the daily move.
- Which one decays faster, AXTC or AXTL?
- Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window AXTC’s moved at 109% annualized and AXTL’s at 158%, so AXTL has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding.
- Can I hold AXTC or AXTL 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.
