In plain words
Questions people ask about SHNY
- Did SHNY return +3 times GLD?
- Over the window to Sep 30, 2026, GLD moved +2.8% and SHNY returned −1.6%. 3 times that move is +8.3%, so the fund came out 9.9 points short of it.
- Why does SHNY not return +3 times over a year?
- Because it resets daily. SHNY aims at +3 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 +3 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.
