List of 2x Leveraged Equity ETFs: FKnol.com

Profits in higher multiples are always welcome, and that's what the leveraged exchange traded funds (ETF) attempt to generate for their investors. A standard ETF which follows a benchmark index attempts to generate returns which are equal in magnitude of the returns generated by the underlying index. Extend a bit farther, and there are the levereaged ETFs which amplify the returns that are generated by the index by a given leverage factor. One of the most common leveraged ETFs are the 2x ETFs which typically generate returns which are twice as that of the returns from the underlying index. Such leveraged ETFs are suitable for the investors who are looking for securing multiple times the profits.
However, one should note that nothing in this world comes for free. In the 2x leveraged ETFs, if the profit margin is doubled, so will be the case with the losses. If the underlying index goes up by 2.5 percent, the ETF will return 5 percent. If the index goes down by 3 percent, the return from 2x leveraged equity ETF will tank by 6 percent.Such leveraged ETFs use derivative contracts like futures to achieve the multiple of returns. One can find a variety of 2 times leveraged ETFs as based on the broader market index like the S&P 500 index, the small cap sector, mid cap sector or the large cap sector. One can also find sector specific leveraged ETFs (like gold mining 2x ETF), regions specific ETFs (like 2x China ETF) and other similar variants. (See the List of S&P 500 ETFs.)
