AAPDADirexion Daily AAPL Bear 1X ETF

TSDDAGraniteShares 2x Short TSLA Daily ETF

In short

AAPD The straight-shooting short on Apple. No 2x, no options overlay: AAPD aims to deliver 100% of the inverse of AAPL's daily move, and it charges less than the typical single-stock bear fund to do it.

TSDD Tesla bears pick their dosage; this is the double. TSDD aims for -2x TSLA's move each day, reset daily, at 0.95% net of a waiver through December 31, 2026. Designed as a short-term tool, not a buy-and-forget holding.

Stated mandate

AAPD The fund seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, equal to 100% of the inverse of the performance of Apple Inc.'s common shares.

TSDD The fund seeks daily results before fees and expenses equal to negative 200% of the daily percentage change in Tesla's common stock. It is designed as a short-term inverse leveraged vehicle.

Why people hold it

  • AAPD One-to-one inverse, not amplified. The fund targets 100% of the opposite of Apple's daily move, so a bearish view doesn't come pre-loaded with 2x leverage on top.direxion.com
  • Cheap for the aisle it sits in: 0.96% a year against a 1.29% median for inverse single-stock funds, and under 2x rivals like TSDD (1.13%) and MSTZ (1.05%).
  • An early mover in single-stock ETFs, live since 2022, and one of the more actively traded names in the inverse single-stock group.
  • Hits its stated daily target closely and ranks among the strongest implementations in its peer group of inverse single-stock funds.
  • TSDD 0.95% net of a waiver through December 31, 2026 (1.13% gross) undercuts fellow 2x short Tesla fund TSLZ at 1.05% and matches 1x bear TSLS at 0.95%, for double the daily exposure.
  • Hews closely to its stated -2x daily target, one of the tighter implementations among single-stock bear funds.
  • Heavily traded for an inverse single-stock fund, so getting in and out is rarely a chore.
  • A 1940 Act ETF that uses swaps and options on TSLA to sit near 200% short at each close: no margin account or stock borrow on your end.graniteshares.com

Worth knowing

  • AAPD The objective resets every day. Hold longer and compounding takes over, so results over a week or a month can differ from the inverse of Apple's move over that stretch, especially in choppy markets.
  • One company, one story. There is no diversification here: an Apple earnings night or product cycle drives the entire position.
  • A small fund by assets, and any distributions come on a quarterly schedule rather than as a steady income stream.
  • TSDD The -2x target resets every day. Hold longer and compounding pulls results away from -2x TSLA's cumulative move, in either direction.graniteshares.com
  • One stock, geared twice: a sharp TSLA rally bites just as hard in reverse. Risk is the highest-octane part of this package.
  • A small fund, and the fee waiver runs through December 31, 2026; after that costs can step up toward the 1.13% gross level.
