ROMAProShares Ultra Technology

UYMBProShares Ultra Materials

In short

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.

UYM The only US ETF built to track 2x the daily move of the S&P materials sector: chemicals, metals, mining, packaging. Running since 2007, it resets daily, so it is a trading tool.

Stated mandate

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.

UYM The fund seeks daily returns, before fees and expenses, equal to two times the daily performance of the S&P Materials Select Sector SM Index.

Why people hold it

  • 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
  • UYM Per ProShares, no other ETF targets 2x the daily return of the materials sector. If you want levered chemicals, miners and packaging in one ticker, this is the shelf.proshares.com
  • 0.95% net of a waiver through September 30, 2027 (1.18% gross), near the leveraged-bull median: level with DDM, a shade above QLD at 0.89% net of a waiver through the same date.
  • Trading since January 2007, through the 2008 crash and several commodity cycles, and it scores in the upper tier of a crowded leveraged-bull field.

Worth knowing

  • 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.
  • UYM Daily reset: hold longer than a day and compounding takes over, so multi-day returns can trail 2x the index move, especially in choppy markets.proshares.com
  • A small fund that trades lightly, so spreads can run wider than the giants of the leveraged shelf.
  • Roughly 40 stocks, market-cap weighted, and one sector. Concentration cuts both ways; distributions come quarterly.
