Our read on QBTZ

ETF.net Research

CA one-day trade on quantum hype cooling. QBTZ aims to deliver -2x the daily move in D-Wave Quantum stock inside an ordinary brokerage account, no margin agreement and no borrowed shares. A stopwatch instrument, not a set-and-forget short.

Stated mandate

QBTZ seeks daily inverse results equal to -200% of the daily percentage change in D-Wave Quantum Inc.'s share price. It is designed for short-term use and does not target results over periods longer than one trading day.

Why people hold it

  1. 01Turns a hard trade into a ticker: shorting a hot quantum name with leverage normally means a margin account and locating borrow. Here it is a share purchase.defianceetfs.com
  2. 02Does the job it advertises. The fund hews closely to its stated goal of -200% of D-Wave Quantum's daily move, which is the whole point of a daily-reset tool.
  3. 03Standard 1940 Act ETF wrapper, so the position cannot cost more than what you put in. No margin calls, no forced buy-in when QBTS rips.defianceetfs.com

Worth knowing

  1. 01The math resets every day. Hold longer than a session and compounding takes over, so results can drift well away from -2x, especially in a stock that whipsaws.
  2. 02At 1.29% a year the fee sits right at the category median and above the big bear funds on mega-caps, like TSLS at 0.95% and AAPD at 0.96%.
  3. 03A 2025 launch and a small asset base relative to established single-stock bear funds, which tends to show up as wider spreads around the edges of the day.
