3x ETF 是毒药, 谈FAS,FAZ

ranchgirl

Recently, someone was talking about FAS was a good investing in another forum. I totally disagree, those 3X ETFs are never designed for investing, only for short term trading.

This chart, which compare SP500 with FAZ and FAS in one year range, will tell you everything.

You can not short them. Because it is not available from brokers.

We had 1000+ posts on this top already.

Especially for short 2x/3x ETF, there is a double decay there.
