Which came closer to its stated multiple, LOFD or SSPC?

Over the window to Sep 30, 2026, LOFD finished 2.7 points from what its multiple implies and SSPC finished 33.9 points from its own, so LOFD came closer. Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about.

Are LOFD and SSPC levered on the same thing?

Yes. Both are levered on Space Exploration Technologies, LOFD at -2 times and SSPC at -2 times the daily move.

Which one decays faster, LOFD or SSPC?

Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window LOFD’s moved at 44% annualized and SSPC’s at 70%, so SSPC has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding.

Can I hold LOFD or SSPC 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.

LOFD in plain words

One month to Sep 30, 2026: LOFD returned −12.7% where its own daily promise gave −13.6%, 1.0 points over. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and −2 times SPCX's 5.0% implies −10.0%, which makes LOFD look 2.7 points short. 3.6 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any −2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. LOFD aims to return -2 times SPCX'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. SPCX moved at 44% 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.

SSPC in plain words

Three months to Sep 30, 2026: SSPC returned −25.4% where its own daily promise gave −25.1%, 0.2 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and −2 times SPCX's −4.2% implies +8.5%, which makes SSPC look 33.9 points short. 33.6 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any −2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. SSPC aims to return -2 times SPCX's move each day, then resets. SPCX moved at 70% annualized over that window.
