Market Focus
Sep 14

On September 14, Direxion Daily MSCI South Korea Bull 3x Shares declined 8.32% overnight, trading at $20.59/share, with turnover of $8.7276 million.

The decline follows a broad retreat in South Korean equities, with the KOSPI index falling 1.76% to 6,909.91 on September 13, giving back gains from its earlier rebound above 7,000. As a triple-leveraged product, the ETF amplified the underlying index losses. The selloff came amid rising rate-hike concerns across the Asia-Pacific region, with the Bank of Japan signaling continued tightening, triggering a sharp pullback in both Japanese and Korean equity markets. Additionally, the Korean central bank recently flagged risks posed by overseas hedge funds deploying up to 4x leverage in Korean chip stocks, calling for tighter oversight of offshore derivatives, adding regulatory uncertainty to the market.

The fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in financial instruments that provide daily 3x leveraged exposure to the MSCI South Korea Index, covering approximately 85% of the free float-adjusted market capitalization of South Korean issuers. It is non-diversified.
