KraneShares 2x Long BIDU Daily ETF (KBDU)
Updated October 16, 2026.
KBDU is an ETF linked to Baidu (BIDU). its expense ratio is 1.25%. Total return is -61.7% over the past 0.9 years, 34.3 points behind BIDU at -27.4%.
This ETF seeks to deliver twice the daily performance of Baidu, a Chinese internet and artificial intelligence company, through leveraged exposure using swaps and options rather than direct stock ownership. The fund does not make regular distributions to shareholders. With a modest asset base and an expense ratio of 1.25%, this leveraged product is designed for experienced investors seeking amplified short-term exposure to Baidu's price movements, though the daily reset mechanism means results over longer periods may diverge significantly from twice the underlying stock's performance.

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.
