## Questions

### Did QID return -2 times QQQ?

Over the window to Sep 30, 2026, QQQ moved +2.1% and QID returned −4.2%. −2 times that move is −4.2%, so the fund came out 0.0 points ahead of it.

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

Because it resets daily. QID 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.
