Leveraged ETF tied to Coinbase lost 85% YTD, showing risks of daily compounding and volatility.

The GraniteShares 2x Long COIN Daily ETF (CONL), which aims to deliver twice the daily percentage move of Coinbase stock, has lost about 85% year-to-date. This steep loss highlights the risks of leverage, daily compounding, and volatility in single-stock leveraged ETFs, where returns over longer periods can diverge significantly from the underlying stock's cumulative returns. Even if Coinbase recovers, CONL investors face a much harder path to break even due to the fund's daily reset mechanism and the large capital loss already incurred. CONL is designed for short-term trading exposure, not as a buy-and-hold investment, and its recent performance underscores the challenges of leveraged ETFs in volatile markets.
