HODU in plain words
Three months to Sep 30, 2026: HODU returned −7.4% where its own daily promise gave −4.3%, 3.1 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times HOOD's 3.5% implies +7.1%, which makes HODU look 14.5 points short. 11.4 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any 2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. HODU aims to return +2 times HOOD'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. HOOD moved at 71% 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.
HOOC in plain words
One month to Sep 30, 2026: HOOC returned +9.4% where its own daily promise gave +10.5%, 1.1 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times HOOD's 7.3% implies +14.7%, which makes HOOC look 5.2 points short. 4.2 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any 2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. HOOC aims to return +2 times HOOD's move each day, then resets. HOOD moved at 77% annualized over that window.
Questions people ask
- Which came closer to its stated multiple, HODU or HOOC?
- Over the window to Sep 30, 2026, HODU finished 14.5 points from what its multiple implies and HOOC finished 5.2 points from its own, so HOOC came closer. Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about.
- Are HODU and HOOC levered on the same thing?
- Yes. Both are levered on Robinhood Markets, HODU at +2 times and HOOC at +2 times the daily move.
- Which one decays faster, HODU or HOOC?
- Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window HODU’s moved at 71% annualized and HOOC’s at 77%, so HOOC has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding.
- Can I hold HODU or HOOC 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.
