Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Are LITG and LITU levered on the same thing?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Yes. Both are levered on Lumentum, LITG at +2 times and LITU at +2 times the daily move."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Which one decays faster, LITG or LITU?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window LITG\u2019s moved at 74% annualized and LITU\u2019s at 96%, so LITU has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Can I hold LITG or LITU 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, LITG or LITU?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"LITG charges 0.99% a year and LITU charges 1.50%, so LITG 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":"LITG vs LITU","item":"https://etfiq.com/compare/leverage/litg-vs-litu"}]},{"@type":"WebPage","name":"LITG vs LITU: which held to its multiple?","description":"LITG sets out to return +2 times LITE each day and LITU +2 times.
