Description: LABU Direxion Daily S&P Biotech December 26, 2025

The Direxion Daily S&P Biotech Bull 3X Shares (LABU) seeks to deliver three times the daily performance of the S&P Biotechnology Select Industry Index by allocating at least 80 % of its net assets to derivatives-primarily swap agreements, index-linked securities, and ETFs-that together provide the leveraged exposure. Because the fund is classified as non-diversified, its holdings are concentrated in the biotech sub-industry defined by the Global Industry Classification Standards (GICS), and its performance is reset each trading day, which can cause compounding effects in volatile markets.

Key considerations for investors include the sector’s sensitivity to FDA approval pipelines (the biotech industry logged 38 novel drug approvals in Q3 2024, a 12 % YoY increase), R&D intensity (average R&D spend as a percentage of revenue remains above 25 % for the top 10 constituents), and the broader risk-on/risk-off environment that drives equity leverage demand. Additionally, leveraged ETFs like LABU typically exhibit higher expense ratios (≈0.95 % annual) and amplified tracking error compared to unleveraged peers, especially during periods of heightened volatility.
