Updated October 16, 2026.

KEEX is an ETF linked to Keel Infrastructure (KEEL). its expense ratio is 1.35%. Total return is -70.9% over the past 0.8 years, 68.0 points behind KEEL at -2.9%.

Defiance Daily Target 2x Long KEEL ETF is an actively managed ETF that seeks to deliver twice the daily percentage change of Keel Infrastructure shares through the use of derivatives such as swaps and options; it is non-diversified and therefore concentrated in a single underlying security. The fund carries an expense ratio of 1.35% and does not make regular distributions. This fund is designed for traders seeking leveraged daily exposure to Keel Infrastructure rather than for buy-and-hold income investors, and the leverage structure means it is not suitable as a long-term holding.

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.
