About this episode

Kevin Muir discusses the risks associated with leveraged ETFs and their potential impact on tech stocks.

Leveraged ETFs promise amplified returns, but Kevin Muir warns they can amplify something else too: market chaos. He explains how 2x and 3x ETFs, daily resets, forced buying and selling, and “negative gamma” can turn ordinary volatility into violent market moves.
