UGL Profile
The
Ultra Gold 2X ETF (UGL) is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) that seeks to
provide investors with twice the daily return of the price of gold
bullion. UGL invests in gold futures contracts traded on the New York
Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX), which is owned by the Chicago Mercantile
Exchange Group.
The investment objective of UGL is to provide
leveraged exposure to the price of gold, which can allow investors to
potentially amplify their returns when the price of gold is rising.
However, it is important to note that this leverage also amplifies
potential losses if the price of gold is declining.
The ETF
achieves its investment objective by using financial derivatives such
as futures contracts and swap agreements, which can introduce
additional risks for investors. Additionally, UGL is subject to fees
and expenses that can reduce returns for investors.
Investing
in UGL may be suitable for investors who have a bullish outlook on the
price of gold and are comfortable with the risks associated with
leverage and derivative instruments. However, as with any investment,
investors should carefully evaluate the potential benefits and risks
of investing in UGL and should consider their investment objectives,
risk tolerance, and investment time horizon before making an
