1. IONX – Defiance Daily Target 2X Long IONQ ETF

The Defiance Daily Target 2X Long IONQ ETF, which seeks daily leveraged investment results of two times the daily percentage change in the share price of IonQ Inc., topped the levered ETFs’ list last week with ~138% returns. IonQ shares surged last week following a DARPA contract to develop high-speed quantum interconnects. This growth was further fueled by breakthroughs in trapped-ion networking and positive market sentiment linked to Nvidia’s new quantum-AI models.

2. HIMZ – Defiance Daily Target 2X Long HIMS ETF

HIMZ seeks to deliver 2x leveraged exposure to the daily share price movement of Hims & Hers Health Inc. ranked second on the levered ETFs list last week, fueled by the FDA announcing July advisory sessions to review easing restrictions on several peptides, which could boost the company’s compounded drug offerings.

3. OKLL – Defiance Daily Target 2x Long OKLO ETF

OKLL seeks to deliver 2x leveraged exposure to the daily share price movement of Oklo Inc. Class A (NYSE: OKLO) was another prospect on the list with over 72% weekly gains.

This regulatory shift eliminates a major barrier for retail investors, signaling a significant expected boost to the platform’s trading volumes and revenue.

5. HOOX – Defiance Daily Target 2X Long HOOD ETF

HOOX, which seeks to provide 2x leveraged exposure to the daily share price movement of Robinhood Markets, Inc. (Nasdaq: HOOD), was another leveraged ETF on this week’s list with ~67% gains.

MSTU, which aims to provide 2x leveraged exposure to the daily price movement of MicroStrategy Inc. stock (NASDAQ: MSTR), was present on the list.

As a primary institutional proxy for the asset, MSTR’s surge reflects its massive BTC treasury and renewed market optimism.

7. MSTX – Defiance Daily Target 2x Long MSTR ETF

MSTX, which seeks to provide 2x leveraged exposure to the daily share price movement of MicroStrategy Inc. (NYSE: MSTR), also made it to the list with 64% returns in the last week.

8. MST – Defiance Leveraged Long Income MSTR ETF

MST was another MicroStrategy-focused fund on the top-performing levered/ inverse ETFs last week, with nearly ~54% weekly gains.

9. CONL – GraniteShares 2x Long COIN Daily ETF

CONL ETF, which provides 2x leveraged exposure to the daily price movement for shares of Coinbase stock, was present on the list with over 49% weekly returns. Coinbase (NASDAQ: COIN) stock rose, driven by a broader cryptocurrency market rally, rising Bitcoin prices, and positive sentiment within the tech sector.

10 .KBDU – KraneShares 2x Long BIDU Daily ETF

KBDU, which provides 2x leveraged exposure to the daily price movement of Baidu, Inc. Sponsored ADR Class A (NASDAQ: BIDU), was another contender on the levered ETFs list.
