Description: NUGT Direxion Daily Gold Miners January 26, 2026
Direxion Daily Gold Miners Index Bull 2X Shares (NYSE ARCA: NUGT) is a leveraged ETF that seeks to deliver twice the daily return of the Dow Jones U.S. Select Gold Miners Index, which tracks publicly traded companies primarily engaged in gold mining (with secondary exposure to silver). The fund is non-diversified and must allocate at least 80 % of its net assets to derivatives or other instruments that provide the 2× daily exposure.
Key recent metrics (as of 26 Jan 2026):
• Expense ratio ≈ 0.95 % (higher than un-leveraged gold-miner ETFs, reflecting the cost of maintaining leverage).
• Assets under management ≈ $1.2 billion, down 12 % from the 12-month high, indicating investor pull-back amid heightened volatility.
• 30-day price performance ≈ -7.3 %, while the underlying index fell -3.5 % over the same period-a divergence that reflects the compounding effect of daily leverage, especially in a choppy market.
• Gold price trend: spot gold has risen ~4 % year-to-date to $2,140/oz, but intra-day swings of ±2 % are common, amplifying leveraged exposure risk.
These figures suggest that NUGT’s returns are highly sensitive to both gold-price dynamics and the path-dependency inherent in leveraged products.
