Our read on each fund

ETF.net Research

PLTABProShares Ultra PLTR

PLTWBRoundhill PLTR WeeklyPay ETF

In short

PLTA The geared-ETF old guard showing up to the crowded 2x Palantir party: PLTA aims for twice PLTR's daily move, resets every close, and costs 0.95% net of a waiver through September 30, 2027.

PLTW Most PLTR bull funds go 2x and reset daily. PLTW dials the amplification down to 1.2x, resets by the calendar week, and turns Palantir's volatility into a weekly cash payout instead of a capped options trade.

Stated mandate

PLTA The fund seeks daily results, before fees and expenses, equal to twice the daily performance of Palantir Technologies Inc.'s Class A common stock.

PLTW PLTW seeks weekly distributions and calendar-week returns equal to 1.2 times the calendar-week total return of Palantir common shares, before fees and expenses.

Why people hold it

  • PLTA Does one job: twice PLTR's daily move before fees, reset at each close. Among 2x Palantir funds, one of the closer trackers of its own stated mandate.proshares.com
  • 0.95% net of a waiver through September 30, 2027 undercuts Direxion's PLTU (0.97%) and GraniteShares' PTIR (1.04%), and lands near the category median.
  • Magnified exposure from a plain brokerage account: one ticker, no margin agreement, none of the margin-call mechanics that come with borrowing to lever up.proshares.com
  • ProShares bills itself as the world's leader in geared investing; PLTA came in a 2025 batch of 2x single-stock funds alongside Coinbase, Nvidia and Tesla versions.proshares.com
  • PLTW The gentlest leverage in the PLTR bull group: 1.2x the calendar-week move, against the 2x daily resets at PLTU, PTIR and PLTA.
  • Cash on a weekly rhythm, set by a formula that reads Palantir's recent return and implied volatility. No covered calls selling the upside away.roundhillinvestments.com
  • 0.99% expense ratio, a touch under the median for leveraged PLTR funds.
  • Exposure resets once a calendar week rather than every session, and the fund tracks that weekly mandate closely.roundhillinvestments.com

Worth knowing

  • PLTA The 2x target is a one-day target. Held longer, daily compounding in a stock as jumpy as PLTR can push results above or below 2x the period move.proshares.com
  • Price is not the edge here: Leverage Shares' PLTG runs the same 2x daily PLTR mandate at 0.78%, with no waiver in the picture.
  • Launched September 2025 and still a small, moderately traded fund, so trading costs and a short track record are part of the deal.
  • PLTW Leverage runs both directions: a 1% weekly decline in PLTR shares becomes about 1.2%, before fees. Each week compounds off a new base, so longer holds drift from 1.2x.roundhillinvestments.com
  • Roundhill expects a significant portion of the payout to be return of capital, which reduces your cost basis rather than landing as taxable income that year.roundhillinvestments.com
  • A 2025 launch and moderate trading volume: short history to judge, and spreads deserve a limit order rather than a market one.
