About SK

Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times SKHY's −13.3% implies −26.6%, which makes SK look 11.3 points short. That is not the fund's objective, which is daily. Of that 11.3, daily compounding is −8.7 points, which any 2 times fund would show over the same path, and the fund itself is −2.6 points against 2 times each day's move, compounded. SK aims to return +2 times SKHY's move each day, then resets. Over one day it does that. Over longer periods the daily results compound, so the total is not +2 times the period's move: it is lower after a fall and recovery, and can be higher in a steady run. SKHY moved at 78% annualized over that window. The more it moves, the further the two figures separate.

Over the three months to Oct 21, 2026, SK lost 37.9%, against −35.3% for twice SKHY's daily moves.

About SKHX

Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times SKHY's −13.3% implies −26.6%, which makes SKHX look 11.8 points short. Of that 11.8, daily compounding is −8.7 points, which any 2 times fund would show over the same path, and the fund itself is −3.1 points against 2 times each day's move, compounded. SKHX aims to return +2 times SKHY's move each day, then resets.

Over the three months to Oct 21, 2026, SKHX lost 38.4%, against −35.3% for twice SKHY's daily moves.

Questions people ask

Which came closer to its daily multiple, SK or SKHX?
Over the window to Oct 21, 2026, SK finished 11.3 points from what its multiple implies and SKHX finished 11.8 points from its own, so SK came closer. Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about.
Are SK and SKHX levered on the same thing?
Yes. Both are levered on SK hynix, SK at +2 times and SKHX at +2 times the daily move.
Which one decays faster, SK or SKHX?
Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window SK’s moved at 78% annualized and SKHX’s at 78%, so SK has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding.
Can I hold SK or SKHX for a year?
Both reset every day, so the multiple in the name applies to a single day, and daily results compound. Over a year the total is not the multiple times the year’s move; after a fall and recovery it is lower.
Which is cheaper, SK or SKHX?
SK charges 0.50% a year and SKHX charges 0.75%, so SK is cheaper. Fees come from each fund's prospectus.
