## Questions

### Why does CEFD not return +1.5 times over a year?

Because it resets daily. CEFD aims at +1.5 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 +1.5 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.
