Our read on PLU
DMost 2x single-stock ETFs chase megacap tech. This one points daily double leverage at Planet Labs, the satellite-imagery company, in a one-trading-day-at-a-time wrapper Defiance launched in 2026.
The Fund seeks daily investment results equal to two times the daily percentage change in Planet Labs PBC’s share price, before fees and expenses. It is designed for short-term use and does not target results over periods longer than one trading day.
Why people hold it
- One job, stated plainly: two times Planet Labs' daily move, before fees and expenses. Delivery against that stated daily target has been close.defianceetfs.com
- The 2x single-stock shelf skews megacap (GGLL for Alphabet, AAPU for Apple). PLU aims the same machinery at a small satellite-imaging company.
- Leverage without the plumbing: a 1940 Act fund you buy like any share, with no margin account and no derivatives contracts to manage yourself.defianceetfs.com
Worth knowing
- The daily reset means multi-day results come from compounding. Over choppy stretches, the fund can land well away from two times the stock's move for that period.defianceetfs.com
- At 1.31%, the fee sits above peers running 2x books at 0.75% (UNHG, ASMG) or 0.96% (GGLL, AAPU).
- Everything rides on one company. Single-stock news arrives doubled, up days and down days alike, with no diversification to soften it.

PLU 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.
