Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Are INTW and LINT levered on the same thing?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Yes. Both are levered on Intel, INTW at +2 times and LINT at +2 times the daily move."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Which one decays faster, INTW or LINT?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window INTW\u2019s moved at 73% annualized and LINT\u2019s at 73%, so INTW has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Can I hold INTW or LINT for a year?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"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\u2019s move, and in a market that falls and comes back it is reliably less. ETFIQ makes no recommendation either way."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Which is cheaper, INTW or LINT?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"INTW charges 1.50% a year and LINT charges 0.97%, so LINT is cheaper. Fees come from each fund's prospectus."}}]},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"ETFIQ","item":"https://etfiq.com/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Leveraged ETFs","item":"https://etfiq.com/leverage/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"INTW vs LINT","item":"https://etfiq.com/compare/leverage/intw-vs-lint"}]},{"@type":"WebPage","name":"INTW vs LINT: which held to its multiple?","description":"INTW sets out to return +2 times INTC each day and LINT +2 times.
