Our read on RXL
CThe 2x way to lean on health care. RXL doubles the daily move of the big health care sector index, roughly 70 drug, device and insurer names, and it has been doing that since 2007. The leverage resets every day.
The fund seeks daily returns, before fees and expenses, equal to two times the daily performance of the S&P Health Care Select Sector Index.
Why people hold it
- Aims for two times the daily performance of the S&P Health Care Select Sector Index: about 70 pharma, device and insurer stocks, not a single-name bet.proshares.com
- Double, not triple. The 2x mandate applies the same daily-reset machinery with less daily punch than 3x sector products.proshares.com
- Running since 2007, so the structure has operated through the financial crisis, COVID and several drug-pricing scares. Long tenure for a leveraged fund.
- Pays on a quarterly schedule, which is unusual company for a geared sector fund.
Worth knowing
- The 2x target is a daily one. Hold longer and compounding takes over: in choppy stretches, results can diverge meaningfully from twice the index move.
- A small fund that trades thinly, so bid-ask spreads can run wider than on the headline leveraged names.
- The 1.07% expense ratio sits a shade above the typical leveraged bull fund, and cheaper geared products exist on other sectors (FAS 0.92%, UYG 0.94%).

RXL 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.
- 28.6%
How it’s calculated: standard deviation
The sample standard deviation of monthly total returns, multiplied by the square root of 12.
Uses up to 36 complete months, with at least 12 required. Total returns include reinvested distributions.
- 0.39
How it’s calculated: Sharpe ratio
Subtract each month’s Treasury-bill return from the fund’s monthly total return.
Divide the average of those excess returns by their sample standard deviation, then multiply by the square root of 12.
Uses up to 36 complete months, with at least 12 required. Each month uses the Treasury yield quoted at the end of the previous month.
- −36.1%
How it’s calculated: maximum drawdown
The largest percentage decline from an earlier peak, using total returns with reinvested distributions.
Uses up to five years through the last close, with at least 12 months required.
