There are times when your conviction in an investment is higher than your available capital. These are those times when simply matching the returns of a stock market sector would seem like leaving money on the table.
For example, suppose you're unabashedly bullish that financial stocks will soar as the Federal Reserve cuts rates more than currently anticipated at its next meeting. Instead of buying an exchange-traded fund that can deliver one-to-one returns with financial stocks , you want one with a little more juice. Enter the ProShares Ultra Financials (NYSEMKT: UYG) . It's the only ETF that offers twice the daily performance of the S&P Financial Select Sector Index .
