APPX is a short-term tactical investment vehicle designed to achieve double (200%) the daily performance of AppLovin Corp. (APP), before fees and expenses are applied. The fund primarily utilizes total return swap agreements with large global financial institutions to replicate the daily returns of APP. In instances where swaps are unavailable or less efficient, the fund can resort to FLEX call options or directly hold shares of APP stock. Investors are cautioned that holding shares for longer than a single day necessitates frequent monitoring and rebalancing of their positions to align with the intended 2x leverage. It is also essential for potential purchasers to engage in their own comprehensive research regarding APP prior to initiating a position, and to trade with a strong conviction. Given the complexities associated with this financial product, the shares tend to meet performance expectations primarily when the underlying stock price trends favorably, and holders maintain a position that corresponds positively with that trade. Furthermore, any remaining cash is strategically invested in collateral assets such as U.S. Treasuries, money market funds, or short-term corporate debts.
