SMCC in plain words
Three months to Sep 30, 2026: SMCC returned +73.4% where its own daily promise gave +86.9%, 13.5 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times SMCI's 48.5% implies +97.1%, which makes SMCC look 23.6 points short. 10.2 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any 2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. SMCC aims to return +2 times SMCI'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. SMCI moved at 86% 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.

Questions people ask
- Which came closer to its stated multiple, SMCC or SMCL?
- Over the window to Sep 30, 2026, SMCC finished 23.6 points from what its multiple implies and SMCL finished 19.5 points from its own, so SMCL came closer. Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about.
- Are SMCC and SMCL levered on the same thing?
- Yes. Both are levered on Super Micro Computer, SMCC at +2 times and SMCL at +2 times the daily move.
- Which one decays faster, SMCC or SMCL?
- Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window SMCC’s moved at 86% annualized and SMCL’s at 86%, so SMCC has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding.
- Can I hold SMCC or SMCL 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.
