A fund can fall over a year in which its underlying rose. That is the daily reset compounding through the moves in between, not an error by the fund.

Method

The same arithmetic the three month table uses, over four times the days, for funds above $100mn in net assets. A multiple is promised on the daily move and nothing else, so the longer it is held through a volatile underlying the further the two can end up. The ranking is the published field sorted, nothing else: no scoring, no weighting and no view on any fund. Every fund ETFIQ covers in this category is eligible, including funds that have closed, because leaving them out would flatter the category.
