## Questions

### Did NUG return +2 times NU?

Over the window to Oct 2, 2026, NU moved −1.3% and NUG returned −10.2%. 2 times that move is −2.6%, so the fund came out 7.6 points short of it.

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

Because it resets daily. NUG 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.
