LongPoint ETFs launched the MegaLong andMegaShort suite to give Canadian investors something truly unique: Canada’s first triple leveraged ETFs traded in Canadian dollars on the TSX.
Earlier this month, the first group of MegaETFs celebrated their one-year anniversary. Now, the remaining three ETFs in the lineup have reached the same milestone, meaning the entire Mega family has officially completed its first year in market.
In this update, we provide the performance of our BNKU ETF* which offers active investors the opportunity amplify their Canadian bank sector views, and CGMU* and CGMD* which are designed to help investors express their long or short views on Canadian gold miners.
*BNKU: MegaLong (3X) Canadian Banks Daily Leveraged Alternative ETF
*CGMU: MegaLong (3X) Canadian Gold Miners Daily Leveraged Alternative ETF
*CGMD: MegaShort(-3X) Canadian Gold Miners Daily Leveraged Alternative ETF

Our Mega ETFs have provided significant opportunities for active investors to capitalize on market movement and volatility. Investors have traditionally allocated to our banks on the basis of dividend income and long-term returns, now with BKNU, active Canadian investors can amplify their sector views for potentially increased capital growth. Canadian banks are benefiting from market momentum, particularly since March 31 as improving macro conditions and easing policy concerns have been market tailwinds. As well, as earnings releases have consistently exceeded expectations over the last year. For the current quarterly earnings, starting with National Bank on May 27 outpacing earnings expectations by 3.0%, sector momentum continues.
For CGMU & CGMD, a strong climb in the price of gold through 2025 has given way to two-way volatility in 2026. While active investors remain focused on gold now priced around $4500 USD per ounce, many are less aware of the performance of gold miners over the past year, at near 50% excess return over spot gold returns as of May 27. For example, Barrick Mining Corp. has returned near 122% over the past year. The operational leverage with gold miners adds to the trading opportunity with these 3X leveraged ETFs.
Daily rebalancing has important implications for the performance of a leveraged ETF for periods longer than a day. For leveraged long ETFs, increases in the benchmark push the daily leveraged ETFs net assets higher, which means an increase in exposure by a multiple of the gain in its net assets. Decreases in the benchmark index lead to a decline in net assets, which results in a reduction of exposure in an amount which is a multiple of the decline in the net assets. This means that a daily leveraged long ETF responds to gains by becoming more aggressive and responds to losses by becoming more defensive.
If the benchmark trends upward over several days, the leveraged long ETF’s gains can exceed the cumulative benchmark return multiplied by the ETF's target multiple. If the benchmark trends downward over several days, long ETF's loss may be smaller than the cumulative benchmark return multiplied by the ETF's target multiple. In volatile markets with no clear trend, the impact of daily rebalancing can be harmful to the performance of leveraged ETFs over time. A continued pattern of this sort will typically reduce the longer-term returns of the ETF.

LongPoint’s Proprietary ETFs, which include the Mega ETFs, Savvy ETFs and Geared ETFs (the “Proprietary ETFs”), are all alternative mutual funds, and as such, are permitted to invest in asset classes or use investment strategies that are not permitted for other types of mutual funds. The Proprietary ETFs are highly speculative and use a significant amount of leverage which magnifies gains and losses.
The Proprietary ETFs are intended for use in daily or short-term trading strategies by very knowledgeable, sophisticated investors. If you hold a Proprietary ETF for more than one day, your return could vary considerably from that ETF's daily target return. The Proprietary ETFs are not suitable for investors who do not intend to actively monitor and manage their investments.
The Proprietary ETFs, through the use of leverage, may experience amplified losses and should not be expected to deliver their daily return objective over any period of time other than daily. The returns of the Proprietary ETFs over periods longer than one day will likely differ in amount and possibly direction from the performance or inverse performance, as applicable, of their daily target for the same period. This effect is more pronounced for the Proprietary ETFs as the volatility of the daily target and/or the period of time increases. An investor in a Proprietary ETF could lose their entire investment within a single day if the daily target experiences a significant gain or loss, as applicable, that day.

Investors should consult a financial and/or tax advisor for financial and/or tax information applicable to their specific situation. All ETFs, including those that seek to track an index are subject to risk, including the possible loss of principal. Diversification does not ensure a profit or protect against a loss in a declining market. While the LongPoint ETFs are designed to be as diversified as the original indices they seek to track and may provide greater diversification than an individual investor may achieve independently, any given ETF may not be a diversified investment. Before investing in shares of the ETFs, investors should consider their ongoing obligations with respect to insider trading, insider reporting, and take-over bids under the Securities Act (Ontario) or other relevant securities legislation (including National Instruments) and as explained in National Policies. Securities regulators may take the view that these provisions extend to the purchase and sale of Shares of the ETFs as they invest in securities of a single issuer, including on a look-through basis.
