## Questions

### Did RKTL return +2 times RKT?

Over the window to Sep 11, 2026, RKT moved +0.8% and RKTL returned +4.1%. 2 times that move is +1.7%, so the fund came out 2.5 points ahead of it.

### Why does RKTL not return +2 times over a year?

Because it resets daily. RKTL aims at +2 times each day's move, and daily results compound. Over a run where the underlying falls and comes back, compounding a levered daily return leaves a holder behind what +2 times the period move would suggest; over a steady run in one direction it can leave them ahead. The longer the holding, and the more the underlying moves about, the further apart the two figures get.
