MRVU in plain words

Three months to Sep 30, 2026: MRVU returned −22.9% where its own daily promise gave −20.4%, 2.6 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times MRVL's −2.9% implies −5.7%, which makes MRVU look 17.2 points short. 14.6 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any 2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. MRVU aims to return +2 times MRVL'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. MRVL moved at 82% 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.

MVLL in plain words

Three months to Sep 30, 2026: MVLL returned −24.5% where its own daily promise gave −20.4%, 4.1 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times MRVL's −2.9% implies −5.7%, which makes MVLL look 18.8 points short. MVLL aims to return +2 times MRVL's move each day, then resets.

Questions people ask

Which came closer to its stated multiple, MRVU or MVLL?
Over the window to Sep 30, 2026, MRVU finished 17.2 points from what its multiple implies and MVLL finished 18.8 points from its own, so MRVU came closer. Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about.
Are MRVU and MVLL levered on the same thing?
Yes. Both are levered on Marvell Technology, MRVU at +2 times and MVLL at +2 times the daily move.
Which one decays faster, MRVU or MVLL?
Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window MRVU’s moved at 82% annualized and MVLL’s at 82%, so MRVU has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding.
Can I hold MRVU or MVLL 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, MRVU or MVLL?
MRVU charges 0.97% a year and MVLL charges 1.50%, so MRVU is cheaper. Fees come from each fund's prospectus.
