About this ETF
AAPU is a short-term tactical tool that aims to deliver 2x the price return, less fees and expenses, for a single day of Apple stock. Purchasers holding shares for longer than a day will need to monitor and rebalance their position frequently to attempt to achieve the 2x multiple. Aside from the leverage, compared to traditional ETFs, the shares take on added volatility due to the lack of diversification. Purchasers should conduct their own individual stock research prior to initiating a position and trade with conviction. Due to the complexities of the product, shares tend to perform as anticipated only when the underlying shares are trending and holders are on the positive corresponding side of that trade. However, the shares provide the advantage of capping the maximum loss to the full amount invested. Prior to April 2, 2024, the fund was named Direxion Daily AAPL Bull 1.5X Shares, seeking to provide a 1.5x leverage exposure. Effective February 27, 2026, the fund replaced the term Shares in its name with ETF.

Guided help: AUM is fund size. The expense ratio is the yearly cost baked into returns. NAV is the value of what the fund owns per share; the market price can sit slightly above (premium) or below (discount) it. Total return assumes distributions were reinvested. Every dataset shows its own as-of date because holdings, assets and quotes update on different schedules.
