Tech 2x leverage ETF's // mull, tsmu mstuI recently purchased mstu and even more recently looked at their chart😊. Their first candle on Wed the 18th to todays close is just proud of 400%. I am currently down about 4%. MSTR chart from Oct 18 to close today is roughly 150%. So…
The ETF accelerated faster than a 2x pace for the first month. I understand MSTR is super popular right now and that that likely helped the etf, however, it got me to thinking. Are leveraged ETFs in general accelerating faster than the underlying consistently upon launch? Well the answer is no.
I looked at recent 2x launches going back to the low in early August and mstu is an outlier.
I did see crwl for CRWD and tsmu for TSM. They were introduced this week. On our Remembrance Day in fact. Respect to US Veterans Day.
Both underlying stocks are solid in my opinion. Especially so in the seasonal broad race to the New Year. The chart I chose to show was MU…mainly because of the range its been playing in. I think it’s consolidating in the warmth of the March gap and going to break to the up side. US government has announced that $39 Billion will be released through the chips act and both TSM // MU will be recipients. BOOST!
To whomever is trading for the MSTU company; Well done team...genuinely, well done. Congrats on the listing. Blunt question for you; is the accelerated growth beyond a 2x result in this first month solely on your trades or are you using VC dollars to create a curve? I hope it’s the former…and I wish you all the best.
P.S.A to anyone looking at mstr call options…the IV is ±130% last time I looked for anything in Q1 of 2025. Brutal. You might as well by spot. Don’t get burned.
Take care,
MR
