Our read on KMLI

ETF.net Research

CThe leveraged single-stock aisle is stacked with the same US mega-caps. KMLI points the machinery somewhere else: twice Mercado Libre's daily percentage move, before fees and expenses.

Stated mandate

The fund seeks daily investment results equal to twice the daily percentage change of Mercado Libre Inc., before fees and expenses.

Why people hold it

  1. 01Twice MELI's daily percentage move, before fees, from a standard brokerage account. No margin loan, no options chain, no share borrow to arrange.kraneshares.com
  2. 02Most geared single-stock funds crowd into names like Apple and Alphabet (AAPU, GGLL). A 2x wrapper on Mercado Libre is a rarer item on the shelf.
  3. 03Its daily results track the stated 2x target closely, and it stands in the upper half of a crowded field of leveraged single-stock bulls.

Worth knowing

  1. 01The leverage resets daily. Hold past one session and compounding takes over: a choppy stretch can leave the fund well off 2x the stock's move over that period.
  2. 02The 1.26% expense ratio sits above the typical fee in this cohort, and the cost of maintaining leverage rides on top of it.
  3. 03Launched in 2025, small, and only moderately traded, so spreads can run wider than the mega-cap-linked funds beside it.

KMLI 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.
