Competitive Edge
FNGU's competitive advantage lies in its leveraged exposure to the highly popular FAMANG stocks, appealing to investors seeking amplified returns from these companies.

Suitable for sophisticated investors with a high-risk tolerance who understand the complexities of leveraged ETFs and seek short-term amplified returns.
