This investment product's daily objective is to achieve results that, prior to the deduction of fees and expenses, match two times (2x) the daily performance observed in the ICE U.S. Treasury 20+ Year Bond Index. ### What is the expense ratio of UBT? ProShares - Ultra 20+ Year Treasury (UBT) charges an expense ratio of 0.98%. This is the annual fee deducted from fund assets to cover management and operations. ### What is UBT's dividend yield? UBT's trailing-twelve-month yield is 3.28%, calculated from the sum of dividends over the past year divided by the current price. ### What is the duration of UBT? Effective duration measures UBT's sensitivity to interest-rate changes: a duration of 6 means a 1% rate move shifts NAV by roughly 6% in the opposite direction. UBT's current duration is published on the fund's factsheet on the issuer's website. ### What is the credit quality of UBT? UBT's credit quality breakdown (the share of holdings rated AAA through CCC and below) is published on the fund's factsheet. Higher-quality (investment-grade) funds yield less but carry less default risk than high-yield / junk bond funds. ### What is the yield to maturity of UBT? Yield to maturity (YTM) is the total return you'd earn from UBT if every bond in the portfolio is held to maturity at the current price. UBT's YTM is published on the fund's factsheet on the issuer's website. It differs from the trailing-12-month yield because YTM reflects current bond prices rather than historical income paid. ### Does UBT pay a dividend?

On a $10,000 investment compounding at 7% gross return, a 0.98% expense ratio quietly compounds against your balance every year. The Fee Compounding Forecast card above projects the dollar drag for any holding period and assumption you pick. The typical result for a 1.0% expense ratio on a 30-year hold is roughly 25% of the final balance lost to fees. ### How does UBT charge its expense ratio? The expense ratio is deducted in tiny daily slices from UBT's net asset value (NAV). You never see a bill. The price quoted on every exchange is already net of fees. There's no "fee day" to avoid; the cost is continuous and built into the trading price. ### Why does UBT cost more than a fund like VOO? UBT is a leveraged fund (current expense ratio 0.98%). Daily-reset leverage products carry swap and financing costs that don't exist on a plain-vanilla equity ETF. The Cost Verdict card compares against the leveraged/inverse cohort where these costs are the norm. ### Are there cheaper alternatives to UBT? The Lower-Fee Alternatives card above lists ETFs following the same investment strategy as UBT (0.98%) but at a lower expense ratio. Each row shows the fee gap, the peer's AUM as a liquidity sanity-check, and a direct link to that fund's analysis page. Cheaper price doesn't automatically mean better.
