AGQCProShares Ultra Silver

ROMAProShares Ultra Technology

In short

AGQ Silver with the volume turned up. Since 2008, AGQ has aimed to double silver's daily move using futures and swaps instead of bullion, and ProShares bills it as the only ETF built on 2x the Bloomberg Silver Subindex.

ROM The original 2x tech trade. Since 2007, ROM has aimed at twice the daily move of the S&P 500's technology sector: a double dose in a category now stacked with triples.

Stated mandate

AGQ The fund seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, corresponding to twice the daily performance of the Bloomberg Silver Subindex. It obtains this exposure through futures and swaps rather than directly holding silver.

ROM ROM seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, corresponding to twice the daily performance of the S&P Technology Select Sector SM Index.

Why people hold it

  • AGQ ProShares bills it as the only ETF targeting 2x the daily move of the Bloomberg Silver Subindex, a mandate it has run since December 2008.proshares.com
  • Fees run 0.95% a year, below the median for leveraged funds, which is notable for a strategy built on futures and swaps.
  • Actively traded, which matters for a tool designed to be used day by day rather than parked.
  • Sits among the stronger implementations in a crowded leveraged-bull field.
  • ROM Two times, not three. A 2x daily target means smaller swings and less compounding drag than a 3x fund chasing the same sector.sec.gov
  • Live since January 2007, so it has run through the 2008 crash and the full tech cycle since. Long mileage is rare in geared funds.
  • 0.93% a year, flat, with no waiver propping it up. Peer QLD runs 0.89%, but only net of a waiver through September 30, 2027.
  • One of the strongest implementations in the leveraged-bull pack, from an issuer that has run geared funds since the category's early days.proshares.com

Worth knowing

  • AGQ The 2x target resets each day, so multi-day results can drift well away from twice silver's move, and choppy stretches chew value even if silver ends flat.proshares.com
  • It is a commodity pool, not a 1940 Act fund, so shareholders get a Schedule K-1 at tax time instead of a 1099.proshares.com
  • Exposure comes from silver futures and swaps, not metal in a vault, and the fund is not built to pay income.
  • ROM The 2x target resets at each close, so results over weeks or months depend on the path the sector takes, not just where it ends up.sec.govproshares.com
  • Trades thinner than the category's headline names, so spreads and limit orders matter, especially in size.
  • About 80 tech names from the S&P 500. That is one concentrated sector bet, doubled, in both directions.
