Our read on TMF
In short
AThree times the daily move of long-dated Treasuries, reset every day. Where most 3x funds aim at stocks, TMF points its leverage at the 20-year-plus end of the curve, and has been doing it since 2009.
Stated mandate
The Fund seeks pre-fee and expense investment results equal to 300% of the daily performance of the ICE U.S. Treasury 20+ Year Bond Index. It is designed for a single trading day, and longer-period results may differ because daily returns compound.

TMF 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.
- 40.2%
