Our read on RETL
CRetail, tripled. RETL aims for 300% of the S&P Retail Select Industry Index's daily move, spread across roughly 80 retailers instead of one or two giants. Trading since 2010, and the math resets every day.
The fund seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, equal to 300% of the S&P Retail Select Industry Index.
Why people hold it
- Retail gets its own trade: 3x daily exposure to the S&P Retail Select Industry Index, spread across roughly 80 retailers rather than a broad consumer basket.
- At 0.96% a year, the fee comes in under the typical leveraged bull fund's.
- The mechanics are spelled out in advance: a stated 300% of one day's index move, reset daily, with no stock picking or manager discretion in the mix.
- Live since 2010, a long run for a leveraged sector fund, and it changes hands actively during the session.
Worth knowing
- The 3x math applies to one day. Hold across many days and compounding can pull results well away from three times the index over that stretch, especially in choppy markets.
- One narrow, cyclical corner of the market at triple speed: swings run far larger than a broad index fund's, in both directions.
- Assets are small by ETF standards, which matters for trading spreads and for a fund's long-term staying power.

RETL 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.
