Direxion Launches Single Stock Leveraged ETFs for Boeing and Exxon Mobil

Direxion, a prominent ETF provider, has introduced four new single stock leveraged and inverse exchange-traded funds (ETFs) targeting The Boeing Company and Exxon Mobil Corporation. The new products include the Direxion Daily BA Bull 2X Shares (BOEU), Daily BA Bear 1X Shares (BOED), Daily XOM Bull 2X Shares (XOMX), and Daily XOM Bear 1X Shares (XOMZ).

These specialized ETFs are engineered for active traders seeking amplified exposure to individual stocks, allowing investors to capitalize on short-term market movements. Douglas Yones, CEO of Direxion, emphasized the products' appeal for traders monitoring headline-driven stocks, such as potential regulatory announcements, airline orders, crude oil prices, and geopolitical developments.

Unlike traditional ETFs, these single stock leveraged funds are not designed for long-term investment strategies. They are explicitly targeted at experienced traders with high risk tolerance who understand the complex mechanics of leveraged investing. The funds provide concentrated exposure to Boeing and Exxon Mobil, enabling traders to potentially profit from daily price fluctuations.

Investors should be aware that these ETFs carry significant risks. They do not offer diversification benefits and can experience substantial value changes within short periods. The funds are intended for sophisticated investors who can actively monitor and manage their positions, with no guarantee of meeting their investment objectives.
