GDXJ And JNUG Outperform Gold During Recent Rally- GDXU Is Gold Mining On Steroids
Gold remains in a strong long-term bullish trend, with junior gold miners and related ETFs delivering leveraged upside performance in 2025. GDXJ, JNUG, and GDXU have all significantly outperformed gold futures recently, with GDXU providing the highest short-term returns. GDXJ is unleveraged but carries inherent risk; JNUG and GDXU offer explicit leverage and require disciplined risk management due to time decay and volatility.

JNUG: A Speculative Tool On Gold, Not A Hold
JNUG is designed as a daily trading tool for leveraged exposure to junior gold miners, not as a long-term investment vehicle. The daily reset and use of derivatives cause performance decay over time, making JNUG unsuitable for buy-and-hold strategies. JNUG's holdings are highly liquid, minimizing redemption cascade risk, and it trades close to net asset value during market hours.
