Our read on AMZU
BThe straight-ahead 2x Amazon trade: twice AMZN's daily move, reset every night, with no options overlay or income wrapper bolted on. Live since 2022 and one of the tighter builds in a crowded leveraged single-stock field.
The Fund seeks daily leveraged investment results equal to twice the daily performance of Amazon.com, Inc. common shares.
Why people hold it
- One job: twice Amazon's move, every trading day. No basket, no overlay, no income gimmick. It has tracked that stated daily objective closely.
- Actively traded, which is what matters for a tool people hold for hours or days. Getting in and out is rarely the hard part here.
- 0.99% a year, right around the going rate for leveraged single-stock funds. Rich next to an index fund, ordinary in this aisle.
- Trading since 2022, and it stands among the strongest implementations in its leveraged single-stock peer group.
Worth knowing
- The 2x resets nightly. Hold past a day and compounding takes over: a choppy stretch can leave the fund far from twice Amazon's move over that span.
- One company, doubled. An earnings night or a guidance stumble at Amazon lands on this fund at twice the size, up or down.
- Cheaper 2x wrappers exist in the cohort (UNHG and ASMG charge 0.75%), but they track different companies, so it is not a like-for-like swap.

AMZU Risk
This fund targets a multiple of the daily move of its index and resets daily. Hold it longer than one reset and compounding makes the return diverge from that target. In choppy markets it can lose value even when the index ends flat.
- 58.5%
How it’s calculated: standard deviation
The sample standard deviation of monthly total returns, multiplied by the square root of 12.
Uses up to 36 complete months, with at least 12 required. Total returns include reinvested distributions.
- 0.50
How it’s calculated: Sharpe ratio
Subtract each month’s Treasury-bill return from the fund’s monthly total return.
Divide the average of those excess returns by their sample standard deviation, then multiply by the square root of 12.
Uses up to 36 complete months, with at least 12 required. Each month uses the Treasury yield quoted at the end of the previous month.
- −55.6%
How it’s calculated: maximum drawdown
The largest percentage decline from an earlier peak, using total returns with reinvested distributions.
Uses up to five years through the last close, with at least 12 months required.
- 2.92
