KATT in plain words

Since launch to Sep 30, 2026: KATT returned −3.5% where its own daily promise gave −1.3%, 2.2 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times PURR's 2.0% implies +4.0%, which makes KATT look 7.5 points short. 5.3 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any 2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. KATT aims to return +2 times PURR'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. PURR moved at 94% 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.

PUR in plain words

One month to Sep 30, 2026: PUR returned −10.3% where its own daily promise gave −6.9%, 3.5 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times PURR's 0.2% implies +0.3%, which makes PUR look 10.6 points short. 7.2 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any 2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. PUR aims to return +2 times PURR's move each day, then resets. PURR moved at 96% annualized over that window.

Questions people ask

Are KATT and PUR levered on the same thing?
Yes. Both are levered on Hyperliquid Strategies, KATT at +2 times and PUR at +2 times the daily move.
Can I hold KATT or PUR 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, KATT or PUR?
KATT charges 1.50% a year and PUR charges 1.31%, so PUR is cheaper. Fees come from each fund's prospectus.
