## Questions

### Did EFU return -2 times EFA?

Over the window to Sep 30, 2026, EFA moved +0.8% and EFU returned −1.4%. −2 times that move is −1.7%, so the fund came out 0.3 points ahead of it.

### Why does EFU not return -2 times over a year?

Because it resets daily. EFU 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.
