MSTX, The First Leveraged MicroStrategy ETF in the U.S. Surpasses $200 Million

MIAMI, Sept. 18, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Defiance ETFs, a leading provider of thematic and leverage-focused exchange-traded funds, is thrilled to announce that its MSTX ETF (1.75X MicroStrategy ETF) has surpassed $200 million in assets under management (AUM). This milestone underscores the strong investor demand and confidence in the product’s innovative approach to offering amplified exposure to MicroStrategy Inc. (MSTR), a company known for its substantial Bitcoin holdings and cutting-edge data analytics solutions.

Key Highlights:

  • Unprecedented Growth: The MSTX ETF’s rapid ascent to $200 million in AUM reflects investors’ growing interest in leveraged strategies and their desire to capitalize on the high volatility and significant movements in MicroStrategy’s stock.
  • Innovative Investment Strategy: MSTX offers 1.75x the daily performance of MicroStrategy’s stock, providing sophisticated investors with a powerful tool to enhance their exposure to the company’s dynamic market positioning. The ETF is designed for investors with a strong appetite for risk who seek the potential for amplified returns over short-term holding periods.
  • Market Demand: The strong reception of the MSTX ETF signals confidence in Defiance ETFs’ ability to meet market demand for targeted leverage exposure, particularly in the tech and cryptocurrency sectors. MicroStrategy’s strategic focus on Bitcoin has made it a popular choice among investors looking to gain exposure to the cryptocurrency market.
  • Strategic Timing: The launch of MSTX comes at a time when interest in both MicroStrategy and Bitcoin is surging, driven by the increasing institutional adoption of digital assets and the evolving landscape of corporate strategies centered around blockchain technology.

“We are excited to see such strong early interest in the MSTX ETF, which validates our belief in the demand for specialized leveraged products that offer precise exposure to high-growth sectors,” said Sylvia Jablonski, CEO of Defiance ETFs. “The rapid growth of MSTX is a testament to our team’s ability to deliver innovative investment solutions that resonate with today’s investors.”

The Fund is not intended to be used by, and is not appropriate for, investors who do not intend to actively monitor and manage their portfolios. The Fund pursues a daily leveraged investment objective, which means that the Fund is riskier than alternatives that do not use leverage because the Fund magnifies the performance of its Underlying Security. The Fund is not suitable for all investors. The Fund is designed to be utilized only by sophisticated investors, such as traders and active investors employing dynamic strategies. Investors who do not understand the Funds, or do not intend to actively manage their funds and monitor their investments should not buy shares of the Funds.

Investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible.

There is no guarantee that the Fund’s investment strategy will be properly implemented, and an investor may lose some or all of its investment.

Underlying Security Risk. The underlying security is subject to many risks that can negatively impact the Fund.

Leverage Risk. Leverage may increase the risk of loss and cause fluctuations in the market value of the Fund’s portfolio to have disproportionately large effects or cause the NAV of the Fund generally to decline faster than it would otherwise.

Derivatives Risk. Derivatives may be more sensitive to changes in market conditions and may amplify risks.

Effects of Compounding and Market Volatility Risk. The Fund has a daily leveraged investment objective and the Fund’s performance for periods greater than a trading day will be the result of each day’s returns compounded over the period, which is very likely to differ from the Fund performance, before fees and expenses.

Single Issuer Risk. Issuer-specific attributes may cause an investment in the Fund to be more volatile than a traditional pooled investment which diversifies risk or the market generally. The value of the Fund, which focuses on an individual security, may be more volatile than a traditional pooled investment or the market as a whole and may perform differently from the value of a traditional pooled investment or the market as a whole.

MSTR Performance RiskMSTR may fail to meet its publicly announced guidelines or other expectations about its business, which could cause the price of MSTR to decline.

Bitcoin Risk. While the Fund will not directly invest in digital assets, it will be subject to the risks associated with Bitcoin by virtue of its investments in options contracts that reference MSTR.

New Fund Risk. As of the date of this prospectus, the Fund has no operating history and currently has fewer assets than larger funds. Like other new funds, large inflows and outflows may impact the Fund’s market exposure for limited periods of time.

Brokerage Commissions may be charged on trades.

MSTX is distributed by Foreside Fund Services, LLC.
