RYVYX up 5.7% today. Personally I like to flip long and short via these funds. You just have to be careful with position size, but it is a nice possibility for accounts with restrictions (e.g. retirements accounts of various kinds). I flipped to short on 4/8, then back to long on 4/15. Compounded return in 13 days = 17% trading an index. I like that, since you are relatively insulated from surprise company-specific problems, yet you can enhance the volatility and so exploit that. So the risk/reward is to my liking, and you only have to concentrate on watching QQQQ. Same sort of strategy can be employed with other indexes as well, using MFs specific to those. Sure would be nice if somebody invented a derivative that accomplishes the same thing, but trades in real time. That would obviate the major problem with this approach---that the MFs can only be traded at the close, and you have to make a decision during market hours at least one hour before the close, just as the market is heading into one of the two busiest parts of the session.
