Technology Bull 3x (AMEX:TYH)

Long steady ride to highs from being pulled by apple, IBM, qualcomm, this 3x has too much premium built into continued steady appreciation thus must fall as these high option costs will eat up value over time

This kind of triple ETF will always underperform over the long run due to the way it is constructed. Note: I am not saying you cannot make any money holding this ETF, just that over a prolonged time it will lose money.
To prove my point, I now have harvested positive scores on 10 of these ETFs and their inverse versions since the beginning of this month.

When you look at the internal costs and statistics of these leveraged instruments, they must all underperform the market over time. If I could, I would short them in real life.

It is late August, is the market going to crash? Is it safe to short 3x bullish shares? Does their internal inefficiency warrant a short of their shares? Will some of these balance my shorts in 3x bears?

I believe the markets will be flat to lower over the next few months. Lots of volatility. The contango will be killer on this Daily 3X.

drop these markets!

When the overly optimistic FOMC says that household spending will be "constrained" by sluggish income growth, ongoing job losses, lower household wealth, and tight credit AND Shanghai stocks hit a seven-week low, then you know this bear market rally is finally over!

QUICK! Pick a reason to exit a market that has risen too fast and gotten too expensive. Here are three to choose from: buying power is getting exhausted according to DeMark indicators; daily sentiment indicators are 88% bullish; RSI’s and oscillators are over extended.

3x leverage on the upside for an overbought market. not to mention the fact that Tech acts as a sort of ultra on the stock market as is. Even if the market does not drop as I expect over the next few months the leverage will destroy them in the long term

They didn't have warp speed technology like this in Star Trek so why should I believe it now? Apple cannot single-handedly drive this up every single day without so much as a pullback. I call shenanigans!

The lone advantage the US has over the rest of the world is technology. China has cheaper labour, Canada has natural resources, Europe has better balance sheets...but the US has the most advanced technology and R&D in the world. This is the only way for the US to keep pace with the planet. The next 25 years will see more technology advances than the previous 2,500 years and the US will lead the way. And I will triple my gains in TYH.

Half-life period of leveraged ETF is inversely proportional to its volatility.

Based on my call that the rally is going to see a pull-back over the next few weeks I am giving all Bear ETFs a thumbs up and all Bull ETFs a thumbs down in the short run. I am only invested in a small sampling of these bear ETFs but in order to raise my CAPS score I entered several here.
