HYNX among the 498 leveraged ETFs at 2x, over three months
How closely it delivered its daily multiple over 3 months, ranked against 498 leveraged ETFs at 2x, over three months and 74 inverse ETFs at 2x, over three months. 100 is best. How it is computed
SKDD among the 74 inverse ETFs at 2x, over three months
A percentile among the 498 leveraged ETFs at 2x, over three months. SKDD is a percentile among the 74 inverse ETFs at 2x, over three months, a different set, so the two marks are not on one scale. Three months only, against the fund's own daily multiple; a different quarter can rank it very differently. All leveraged ETFs ranked by it →

Over the three months to Nov 12, 2026, HYNX lost 42.6%, against −40.5% for twice SKHY's daily moves.
Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times SKHY's −16.9% implies −33.8%, which makes HYNX look 8.8 points short. That is not the fund's objective, which is daily. Of that 8.8, daily compounding is −6.7 points, which any 2 times fund would show over the same path, and the fund itself is −2.1 points against 2 times each day's move, compounded. HYNX aims to return +2 times SKHY's move each day, then resets. Over one day it does that. Over longer periods the daily results compound, so the total is not +2 times the period's move: it is lower after a fall and recovery, and can be higher in a steady run. SKHY moved at 75% annualized over that window. The more it moves, the further the two numbers separate.
Over the three months to Nov 12, 2026, SKDD lost 6.9%, against −6.1% for twice the inverse of SKHY's daily moves.
Read the multiple against the whole window instead and −2 times SKHY's −16.9% implies +33.8%, which makes SKDD look 40.7 points short. Of that 40.7, daily compounding is −39.9 points, which any −2 times fund would show over the same path, and the fund itself is −0.8 points against −2 times each day's move, compounded. SKDD aims to return -2 times SKHY's move each day, then resets. Over longer periods the daily results compound, so the total is not -2 times the period's move: it is lower after a fall and recovery, and can be higher in a steady run.
Questions people ask
- Which came closer to its daily multiple, HYNX or SKDD?
- Over the window to Nov 12, 2026, HYNX finished 8.8 points from what its multiple implies and SKDD finished 40.7 points from its own, so HYNX came closer. Neither number predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about.
- Are HYNX and SKDD levered on the same thing?
- Yes. Both are levered on SK hynix, HYNX at +2 times and SKDD at -2 times the daily move.
- Which one decays faster, HYNX or SKDD?
- Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window HYNX’s moved at 75% annualized and SKDD’s at 75%, so HYNX has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding.
- Can I hold HYNX or SKDD for a year?
- Both reset every day, so the multiple in the name applies to a single day, and daily results compound. Over a year the total is not the multiple times the year’s move; after a fall and recovery it is lower.
