How Leveraged Commodities ETFs Work?
Using a few advanced level derivative instruments like, forwards, futures, options, and even swaps, the leveraged commodity ETFs aim to magnify the returns generated by a specified leverage factor. For instance, the VelocityShares 3x Long Natural Gas (UGAZ) ETF generates three times the returns generated by the underlying benchmark index it tracks (S&P GSCI Natural Gas Index). If the index value goes up by 1.5%, then the UGAZ ETF shoots up by approximately 4.5% (that is - three times), during the same timeframe. Inverse commodities ETFs are also considered as leveraged ETFs, as their leverage factor is negative, like -2x or -3x. For instance, the VelocityShares 3x Inverse Gold ETN (DGLD) generates thrice the returns in opposite direction of its underlying index (S&P GSCI Gold Index).
Where do Leveraged Commodities ETFs Invest?
The leveraged commodities ETFs are mostly focused on a single commodity, like the crude oil or gold. Therefore, such leveraged commodity ETFs simply hold and take positions in the derivative instruments like futures which are tied to the performance of the underlying commodity prices. The commodity forwards and futures instruments are available for trading on regulated exchanges, and using these the ETF issuers aim to achieve the leveraged returns.
