Our read on UGE
CLeverage usually chases the market's fastest movers. UGE points it at the slowest: soap, soda and supermarkets. It aims for twice the daily move of the S&P Consumer Staples Select Sector Index, and it has been running that play since 2007.
The fund seeks daily returns, before fees and expenses, equal to twice the daily performance of the S&P Consumer Staples Select Sector Index.
Why people hold it
- Aims for twice the daily move of the S&P Consumer Staples Select Sector Index, roughly 40 US names across food, drinks, household products and big-box retail.proshares.com
- Listed since 2007, so the daily-reset machinery has run through the financial crisis, the 2020 crash and the 2022 rate shock.
- ProShares runs one of the deepest leveraged lineups around, including several of the best-rated bull funds in this peer group.proshares.com
- Exchange-traded exposure to a doubled staples move: no margin account, no swap agreements of your own to manage.proshares.com
Worth knowing
- The 2x target resets every day. Hold past that and compounding takes over, so multi-week results can diverge from twice the index.
- At a 2.19% expense ratio, the fee sits well above the typical leveraged equity ETF, which matters most the longer a position stays on.
- Small fund, niche corner. Spreads can run wider than in the heavily traded index-leverage names like QLD or UDOW.

UGE 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.
- 23.7%
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.
- 0.24
How it’s calculated: Sharpe ratio
Subtract each month’s Treasury-bill return from the fund’s monthly total return.
