A post-pandemic rally followed by an extended decline has been putting investors off emerging markets (EM) assets, but the tide could be turning in their favor. If so, traders may want to add leverage to their bullish bets with products from Direxion Investments.

Emerging markets (EM) began to garner interest again as it appeared that forthcoming rate cuts could tamp down the strength of the U.S. dollar. But tariffs may have stifled a potential rally.

The start of President Trump's tenure in the White House brings a certain degree of uncertainty to emerging markets. That said, traders considering EM will want to stay flexible in a volatile market.

There are headwinds in emerging markets (EM), but investors don't seem to mind, according to data presented in the Financial Times. Whether investors are exhibiting optimism or pessimism, traders can be prepped for market fluctuations with leveraged ETFs from Direxion.

The United States and other developed markets have been making investors think twice about emerging markets (EM), but bulls look primed to run. On the other hand, bears are skeptical, especially given the current strength in U.S. stocks.

With U.S. Federal Reserve rate cuts looming, emerging markets (EM) are garnering interest from capital markets. This gives traders various options when looking at profitable opportunities in the EM space.

Looming interest rate cuts instituted by the Federal Reserve should help prop up emerging markets (EM) in the short-term horizon. However, the long-term case is also erring on the side of bullishness, offering opportunities in leveraged, EM-focused exchange-traded funds.

Higher-for-longer interest rates are causing bears to jump back into emerging markets (EM) as a stronger dollar continues to push back against a rally. The Direxion Daily MSCI Emerging Markets Bear 3X ETF (EDZ) has been a beneficiary of the recent slump.

An unexpectedly stronger dollar is applying downward pressure on emerging market (EM) growth. But the Direxion Daily MSCI Emerging Markets Bull 3X Shares (EDC) isn't budging.

The eventual loosening of monetary policy by the Federal Reserve was fueling a rally in emerging markets (EM). But fading optimism due to weak corporate earnings could continue fueling inverse EM ETFs.
