UNHGALeverage Shares 2x Long UNH Daily ETF

UNHUCDirexion Daily UNH Bull 2X ETF

In short

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%.

UNHU Two ETFs chase 2x a daily move in UnitedHealth; this is Direxion's. It targets 200% of UNH's daily return and resets each night. Fee: 0.97% net of a waiver through September 1, 2027, 0.99% gross.

Stated mandate

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

UNHU The fund seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, equal to 200% of the performance of UnitedHealth Group Incorporated common shares.

Why people hold it

  • 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
  • UNHU Narrow, legible mandate: 200% of UNH's move for one trading day, rebalanced nightly. No margin account, no broker loan, no maintenance calls to manage.direxion.com
  • Direxion is a long-running specialist in daily leveraged funds, and the one-day objective and nightly reset are spelled out in the fund's own fact sheet and prospectus.direxion.comsec.gov
  • Cost sits near the middle of the leveraged single-stock crowd: 0.97% net of a waiver through September 1, 2027, 0.99% gross.

Worth knowing

  • 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.
  • UNHU The daily reset is the whole machine. Hold past one session and compounding steers the result; a choppy stretch can leave the fund down even if UNH ends higher.sec.gov
  • The rival 2x UNH fund, UNHG, lists 0.77% with no waiver, so this is the pricier side of a two-fund matchup on the same stock.
  • One stock means none of the cushion of diversification, and this is a young, thinly traded fund, so bid-ask spreads are part of the real cost.direxion.com
