SPYU: Great Trading Leverage, But Not A Buy And Hold
SPYU is a 4x leveraged ETN designed for daily trading, not long-term holding, due to compounding and daily reset effects. The key risk is issuer credit (Bank of Montreal), not underlying holdings or management fees, making internal structure less relevant. SPYU is best used for short-term speculation or hedging, not as a core investment or buy-and-hold strategy.

Top 3 ETFs for Bullish Investors Post-Election

SPYU: A Great ETN For Savvy Investors
MAX S&P 500 4X Leveraged ETN is a risky investment that could seriously hurt someone's life savings. However, if used as a relatively small piece of a larger puzzle, SPYU could help to deliver market-beating returns over the long run. Having said the above, many individual investors might want to stay away from this ETN due to its potential for causing irreparable damage to a portfolio, if not handled right.

Use SPYU's 4x Leverage Tactically To Boost Your Portfolio's Risk/Reward Substantially
You've likely heard of 3x Leveraged ETFs - welcome to SPYU, the first 4x levered ETN that tracks the S&P 500. The extreme leverage employed by this fund immediately disqualifies it as a long-term investment vehicle due to the potential for permanent capital impairment. However, the built in volatility is interesting from a portfolio construction standpoint.
