In short

BRKU No data

UNHG Two times UnitedHealth's daily move, reset every night: a managed-care insurer in a category stuffed with chip and AI names. UNHG got there first, and it charges 0.77%.

Stated mandate

BRKU No data

UNHG The fund seeks daily investment results equal to twice the daily performance of UnitedHealth Group Incorporated stock, before fees and expenses.

Why people hold it

BRKU No data

  • UNHG At 0.77%, the cheaper of the only two 2x UNH funds: Direxion's UNHU runs 0.97% net of a waiver through September 1, 2027. Both sit below the category's typical fee.
  • First to the 2x UNH trade, listed July 2025, months before Direxion's version arrived in March 2026. It trades actively for a single-stock leveraged fund.direxion.com
  • Exposure comes from total return swaps reset at each close, and day-to-day it has stayed close to its 2x target. One of the better-built funds in a crowded bull field.leverageshares.comsec.gov

Worth knowing

BRKU No data

  • UNHG Daily reset means multi-day results depend on the path UNH takes, not just its direction. Choppy stretches can erode value even if the stock ends where it started.leverageshares.com
  • Swap-based exposure carries counterparty risk, and everything rides on one managed-care company's news, from earnings to policy headlines.leverageshares.com
  • Listed in 2025, so there is little history to judge it across a full market cycle.
