Our read on MEXX

ETF.net Research

In short

FWhile the category's heavyweights lever up US tech and Treasuries, MEXX points 3x daily leverage at Mexico: 300% of the MSCI Mexico IMI 25/50 Index's daily move, at 1.23% net of a waiver through September 1, 2027.

Stated mandate

The fund seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, equal to 300% of the performance of the MSCI Mexico IMI 25/50 Index.

Why people hold it

  • Aims for 300% of the MSCI Mexico IMI 25/50 Index's daily move, a broad read on Mexican stocks across large, mid and small caps, with the leverage reset every day.direxion.com
  • The index applies 25/50 capping rules, so no single Mexican giant swallows the basket, which matters in a market this top-heavy.msci.com
  • Live since May 2017, so this is a seasoned wrapper rather than a new launch, and it pays distributions quarterly.direxion.com

Worth knowing

  • Costs 1.23% net of a waiver through September 1, 2027 (1.26% gross), above the category median and above SOXL's 0.75% net of a waiver through September 1, 2027.
  • Daily reset means returns compound off each day's close, so multi-day results can diverge from 3x the index's move over that stretch, especially in choppy markets.direxion.com
  • Thinly traded and small beside the category's giants, so spreads and limit orders deserve attention. Exposure rides on one country and one currency.

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.
