MSOXDAdvisorShares MSOS Daily Leveraged ETF

ROMAProShares Ultra Technology

In short

MSOX Two times the daily move of AdvisorShares' US cannabis fund, built with swaps. It is the leveraged expression of one of the market's most volatile sector trades, reset every single day.

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

MSOX The Fund seeks approximately twice the daily total return of the US Cannabis ETF before fees and expenses, using swap agreements and other leveraged techniques to pursue that daily objective.

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

  • MSOX A rare wrapper: it targets roughly twice the daily total return of MSOS, the US Cannabis ETF, before fees and expenses.
  • The machinery is stated plainly in the prospectus: swap agreements and other leveraged techniques pointed at one daily objective. No stock picking, no discretion.advisorshares.com
  • Live since 2022, so the daily-reset math has been tested through several cannabis headline cycles rather than a single quiet stretch.
  • Actively traded for a fund of its size, which helps when the whole point is getting in and out on short horizons.
  • 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

  • MSOX Daily reset. Hold past one session and returns compound off each close, so a choppy stretch can land far from 2x the period move in either direction.
  • At 1.42% a year, it costs more than the typical leveraged bull fund, and that toll is paid daily whichever way cannabis moves.
  • Leverage stacked on one already-jumpy sector, in a small fund with no income stream. The entire case rests on price, and swings run deep both ways.
  • 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.
