Do 2X or 3X Bull ETFs Give 2X or 3X Returns After Certain Periods?

Do 2X or 3X Bull ETFs Give 2X or 3X Returns After Certain Periods?

In order to find out I built this app.

How to use this app:

  1. Specify the target return for 1X bull ETF.
  2. Specify the number of negative returns. The system will generate the positive returns.
  3. The startin price is all $100.
  4. Click the run button to see result.

App

Target Retrun for 1X Bull ETF: %
Number of Negative Returns: times
End of Period Return:
  • 1X Bull:%
  • 2X Bull:%
  • 3X Bull:%

Returns

t 1x 2x 3x

Conclusion

After playing this app for a while, I have found that if the 1X bull return is 0% after some time, the 2X and 3X versions still have negative returns.

Historical Performance Comparison Investment duration: 5 years with no tax on dividends BND wins a little with winning rate of 57.5%, but AGG wins 0.012% in return.
