A percentile among the 470 leveraged ETFs, long, over three months. CBRZ is a percentile among the 125 inverse ETFs over three months, a different set, so the two marks are not on one scale. It is a position in a set, not a rating, and neither end of it is a recommendation. All leveraged ETFs ranked by it → How it is computed →

CBRG in plain words
Three months to Sep 30, 2026: CBRG returned −53.5% where its own daily promise gave −51.5%, 2.0 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times CBRS's −19.7% implies −39.4%, which makes CBRG look 14.1 points short. 12.1 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any 2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. CBRG aims to return +2 times CBRS'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. CBRS moved at 108% 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.
CBRZ in plain words
Three months to Sep 30, 2026: CBRZ returned −38.6% where its own daily promise gave −39.1%, 0.5 points over. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and −2 times CBRS's −19.7% implies +39.4%, which makes CBRZ look 78.0 points short. 78.5 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any −2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. CBRZ aims to return -2 times CBRS'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, CBRG or CBRZ?
- Over the window to Sep 30, 2026, CBRG finished 14.1 points from what its multiple implies and CBRZ finished 78.0 points from its own, so CBRG came closer. Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about.
- Are CBRG and CBRZ levered on the same thing?
- Yes. Both are levered on Cerebras Systems, CBRG at +2 times and CBRZ at -2 times the daily move.
- Which one decays faster, CBRG or CBRZ?
- Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window CBRG’s moved at 108% annualized and CBRZ’s at 108%, so CBRG has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding.
- Can I hold CBRG or CBRZ 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.
