Is DRIP a good long-term hold?

DRIP is a leveraged fund designed to deliver a daily multiple of its underlying index. Daily reset compounding means returns over multi-day periods can diverge significantly from the headline multiple — typically negative drift in choppy markets. These funds are designed for short-term tactical use, not buy-and-hold. Review the fund's prospectus before holding more than a few days.

How does DRIP's daily reset work?

DRIP rebalances exposure each trading day to maintain its target leverage ratio against the next day's move. The daily reset means returns compound at the daily level — so a +1%, −1% sequence on the underlying doesn't return the underlying to flat after the leverage multiplier. Over time this path-dependence erodes returns in volatile markets and amplifies them in trending markets.
