Why levered ETFs are so dangerous

  • Summary

  • You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to invest, but you do need to stay sharp. Investing can be risky, especially with complex financial products like options trading and leveraged ETFs. In this episode of Stocks in Translation, Todd Sohn, ETF Strategist at Strategas Asset Management, joins Markets and Data Editor Jared Blikre and Senior Reporter Alexandra Canal above the trading floor of the New York Stock Exchange. Our focus is on leveraged ETFs, also our word of the day. As Blikre explains, a leveraged ETF “uses derivatives or debt to amplify returns, aiming to deliver two… or three times the daily performance of an index.” Find this episode's transcripts and more episodes of Stocks in Translation at https://finance.yahoo.com/videos/series/stocks-in-translation/ Thoughts?
