We take a look at the 10 biggest and most popular ETFs for those investors who are new to the leveraged technique.
Small caps have been the best-performing group among major indices recently, signaling a potential end to years of underperformance. The Direxion Daily Small Cap Bull 3X Shares ETF offers leveraged exposure to small caps but comes with elevated risk. Small caps are on the verge of breaking out of a multi-year consolidation pattern, presenting significant upside potential if a breakout occurs.
Top Performing Levered/Inverse ETFs Last Week These were last week's top performing leveraged and inverse ETFs. Note that because of leverage, these kinds of funds can move quickly.
Year to date, the Russell 2000's scant 1% gain is dwarfed by the S&P 500's 18% gain. But that could be changing.
Rising interest rates and inflation have kept emerging markets (EM) bulls from charging. But an improving macroeconomic environment could potentially be underway after the Federal Reserve's recent rate pause.
Shorting both TNA and TZA would have produced an annual net return of about 16% over the last year. Risks include mechanical problems, changes in the volatility of the Russell 2000 smallcap index, changing borrowing fees, variable yields, and a strongly trending underlying index. Because the strategy requires one to short both tickers, I currently rate TNA and TZA as Sells.
A September month that could be fraught with volatility could mean heavy market fluctuations for small cap equities. Given this, leveraged exchange traded funds (ETFs) that can play an uptrend or downtrend can be beneficial to a trader looking to extract profits from the market.
The S&P 500 is up about 15% for the year, taking a lead on the Russell 2000 index, which is up about 6%. However, there could be relative bargains in the small-cap index, allowing investors to capitalize on companies with future upside.
When it comes to small-cap investing, it can be difficult to hit a home run. However, mid-cap exposure can make for hittable plays, giving investors an opportunity to get exposure to companies that may have a higher chance of breaking through the large-cap ceiling.
