Which came closer to its stated multiple, NBIC or NBIL?

Over the window to Sep 30, 2026, NBIC finished 4.3 points from what its multiple implies and NBIL finished 35.8 points from its own, so NBIC came closer. Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about.

Are NBIC and NBIL levered on the same thing?

Yes. Both are levered on Nebius, NBIC at +2 times and NBIL at +2 times the daily move.

Which one decays faster, NBIC or NBIL?

Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window NBIC’s moved at 63% annualized and NBIL’s at 131%, so NBIL has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding.

Can I hold NBIC or NBIL 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, NBIC or NBIL?

NBIC charges 0.45% a year and NBIL charges 1.50%, so NBIC is cheaper. Fees come from each fund's prospectus.

NBIC in plain words

One month to Sep 30, 2026: NBIC returned +24.3% where its own daily promise gave +26.6%, 2.2 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times NBIS's 14.3% implies +28.7%, which makes NBIC look 4.3 points short. 2.1 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any 2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. NBIC aims to return +2 times NBIS'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. NBIS moved at 63% 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.

NBIL in plain words

Three months to Sep 30, 2026: NBIL returned −30.0% where its own daily promise gave −27.1%, 2.9 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times NBIS's 2.9% implies +5.8%, which makes NBIL look 35.8 points short. 32.9 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any 2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. NBIL aims to return +2 times NBIS's move each day, then resets. NBIS moved at 131% annualized over that window.
