Our read on each fund

ETF.net Research

DDMBProShares Ultra Dow30

USXCCorgi Total U.S. Market 2x Daily ETF

In short

DDM The Dow dates to 1896. DDM is the only ETF built to double its daily move: 2x the Dow Jones Industrial Average, reset every single day, for 0.95% a year, running since 2006.

USX Most 2x bull funds hitch themselves to the Nasdaq 100 or a single sector. USX aims for twice the daily move of the total U.S. market, and it charges well under half its peer group's median fee to do it.

Stated mandate

DDM The fund seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, corresponding to twice the daily performance of the Dow Jones Industrial Average.

USX The fund seeks approximately twice the daily performance of the Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF, providing leveraged broad U.S. equity exposure. Its objective applies only from one trading day to the next.

Why people hold it

  • DDM The only ETF that targets 2x the daily return of the Dow Jones Industrial Average. Leveraged blue-chip exposure through one ticker, no margin account needed.proshares.com
  • Trading since 2006, and its day-to-day results have stayed close to the 2x daily target across nearly two decades of market cycles.proshares.com
  • Easy to get in and out of for a fund its size, and one of the strongest implementations in its peer group of leveraged bull funds.
  • The 0.95% fee sits near the typical charge for leveraged funds, and it is the standing rate, not a number propped up by a temporary waiver.
  • USX A 0.45% expense ratio against a leveraged-bull cohort median of 1.04%. In a corner of the market where 1% is normal, that is a real structural edge.
  • Leverage on the whole U.S. market rather than a slice: the stated reference is the Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (VTI), not a sector or a mega-cap index.
  • No guesswork in the mandate: one reference fund, a declared 2x multiple, a daily objective, all spelled out in the filings.
  • Cheaper than every top-ranked name in its cohort, including QLD, ROM and DDM, which all sit near the 1% mark.

Worth knowing

  • DDM The 2x target resets daily. Hold for weeks and compounding takes over, so results can land well away from twice the Dow's move, especially in choppy markets.proshares.com
  • The Dow is price-weighted across 30 blue chips, so a high-priced stock swings it more than a far larger company does.spglobal.com
  • Sibling leveraged funds cost a little less: QLD charges 0.89% net of a waiver through September 30, 2027, against a 0.96% gross rate.
  • USX The daily reset is the whole story. The 2x target applies from one trading day to the next, so results over longer holds depend on the path the market takes, not just where it ends up.
  • A small fund that trades lightly compared with the category's established names, which can widen bid-ask spreads and make your execution price worth watching.
  • Launched in 2026, so there is only a short live history behind its risk profile versus peers with years of tape.
