TSLG in plain words
Three months to Sep 30, 2026: TSLG returned −37.4% where its own daily promise gave −35.6%, 1.8 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times TSLA's −16.6% implies −33.1%, which makes TSLG look 4.2 points short. 2.4 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any 2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. TSLG aims to return +2 times TSLA'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. TSLA moved at 52% 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, TSLG or TSLR?
- Over the window to Sep 30, 2026, TSLG finished 4.2 points from what its multiple implies and TSLR finished 4.1 points from its own, so TSLR came closer. Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about.
- Are TSLG and TSLR levered on the same thing?
- Yes. Both are levered on Tesla, TSLG at +2 times and TSLR at +2 times the daily move.
- Which one decays faster, TSLG or TSLR?
- Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window TSLG’s moved at 52% annualized and TSLR’s at 52%, so TSLG has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding.
- Can I hold TSLG or TSLR 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.
