GraniteShares 2x Long GOOGL Daily ETF is an actively managed fund that seeks to deliver twice the daily percentage gains or losses of Alphabet stock by using swaps, options, and direct stock purchases to maintain approximately 200% notional exposure to the underlying security. The fund does not distribute income to shareholders. This leveraged ETF has an expense ratio of 1.15% and carries the risks inherent in daily rebalancing and leverage, making it suitable primarily for experienced traders seeking short-term directional exposure to Alphabet rather than long-term buy-and-hold investors.

How Dividend Vision calculates yield and returns

Distribution rate (the posted rate) uses calculation basis unavailable. Issuer rates can use a different denominator and date, including ex-date NAV. Trailing-12-month yield is the sum of split-adjusted cash distributions with ex-dates in the last 12 months, divided by the published price. It lags a recent raise or cut. Total return uses split-adjusted close with distributions reinvested on the ex-dividend date (a modeling convention, not the cash-settlement date) from the first stored bar on or after inception through the latest bar, compared with the same window on the benchmark. That is the security's total return, not your personal gain/loss.
