The market for risky exchange-traded funds (ETFs) is experiencing unprecedented growth, with traders increasingly investing in inverse and turbocharged ETFs like the ProShares UltraPro QQQ. These funds offer triple the daily return of the tech-heavy Nasdaq but come with the risk of steeper losses. US-listed single-stock funds now command about $13.4 billion after they first set sail two years ago. Meanwhile, U.S. Treasuries are on track for their longest monthly winning streak since July 2021, with government bonds returning 1.5% in August and nearly 3% since the end of April. This marks the fourth consecutive month of gains for U.S. Treasuries, the longest such streak in over three years.
