TSMX in plain words

Three months to Sep 30, 2026: TSMX returned −0.2% where its own daily promise gave +3.0%, 3.2 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times TSM's 3.0% implies +5.9%, which makes TSMX look 6.1 points short. 2.9 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any 2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. TSMX aims to return +2 times TSM'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. TSM moved at 34% 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.

TWSC in plain words

Three months to Sep 30, 2026: TWSC returned −0.9% where its own daily promise gave +3.0%, 3.9 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times TSM's 3.0% implies +5.9%, which makes TWSC look 6.8 points short. TWSC aims to return +2 times TSM's move each day, then resets.

Questions people ask

Which came closer to its stated multiple, TSMX or TWSC?
Over the window to Sep 30, 2026, TSMX finished 6.1 points from what its multiple implies and TWSC finished 6.8 points from its own, so TSMX came closer. Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about.
Are TSMX and TWSC levered on the same thing?
Yes. Both are levered on Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing, TSMX at +2 times and TWSC at +2 times the daily move.
Which one decays faster, TSMX or TWSC?
Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window TSMX’s moved at 34% annualized and TWSC’s at 34%, so TSMX has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding.
Can I hold TSMX or TWSC 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, TSMX or TWSC?
TSMX charges 0.99% a year and TWSC charges 0.45%, so TWSC is cheaper. Fees come from each fund's prospectus.
