CCUP in plain words

Three months to Sep 30, 2026: CCUP returned +41.9% where its own daily promise gave +47.6%, 5.7 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times CRCL's 32.6% implies +65.3%, which makes CCUP look 23.4 points short. 17.7 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any 2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. CCUP aims to return +2 times CRCL'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. CRCL moved at 85% 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.

CRCA in plain words

Three months to Sep 30, 2026: CRCA returned +39.7% where its own daily promise gave +47.6%, 8.0 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times CRCL's 32.6% implies +65.3%, which makes CRCA look 25.6 points short. CRCA aims to return +2 times CRCL's move each day, then resets.

Questions people ask

Which came closer to its stated multiple, CCUP or CRCA?
Over the window to Sep 30, 2026, CCUP finished 23.4 points from what its multiple implies and CRCA finished 25.6 points from its own, so CCUP came closer. Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about.
Are CCUP and CRCA levered on the same thing?
Yes. Both are levered on Circle Internet, CCUP at +2 times and CRCA at +2 times the daily move.
Which one decays faster, CCUP or CRCA?
Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window CCUP’s moved at 85% annualized and CRCA’s at 85%, so CCUP has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding.
Can I hold CCUP or CRCA 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, CCUP or CRCA?
CCUP charges 1.50% a year and CRCA charges 0.95%, so CRCA is cheaper. Fees come from each fund's prospectus.
