Our read on GGLS
AThe short side of Google, in ETF form. GGLS aims for 100% of the daily opposite of Alphabet's Class A shares: inverse, but unlevered. One of Direxion's original single-stock bear funds, launched in 2022.
The fund seeks daily investment results equal to 100% of the inverse of the performance of Alphabet Inc. Class A shares, before fees and expenses.
Why people hold it
- Straight inverse, no amplifier. It targets 100% of the opposite of GOOGL's daily move, so a bearish view here doesn't arrive with 2x or 3x attached.direxion.com
- Expense ratio of 1.20%, in the same band Direxion charges on its other 1x single-stock bear funds such as AAPD and MSFD.
- Hitting the daily target is the strong suit: it has tracked the one-day inverse of GOOGL tightly, one of the sturdier implementations among inverse single-stock funds.
- Launched in the September 2022 batch that first brought bull and bear single-stock ETFs on Google, Amazon and Microsoft to US investors, so it has a multi-year live record.prnewswire.com
Worth knowing
- The objective resets daily. Hold longer and compounding takes over, so multi-day results can drift from the simple inverse of GOOGL, most of all when the stock is choppy.direxion.com
- One stock, zero diversification. An Alphabet earnings night or a single AI headline is the whole story here.direxion.com
- It trades every session, but this is a small, niche fund next to the household-name inverse products, so spreads and order type carry more weight.

GGLS 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.
- 29.0%

How it’s calculated: Sharpe ratio
