JNUG lets you double down on gold. It is a leveraged Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) product designed by Direxion.
Also known as Direxion Daily Junior Gold Miners Index Bull 2X Shares, JNUG returns two times (2x) the value of the MVIS Global Junior Gold Miners Index (MVGDXJTR) before fees and expenses on any given trading day.
What is MVGDXJTR?
MVGDXJTR is a market-cap-weighted index of global “junior” gold mining companies. These companies are referred to as "junior" as they are micro, small or mid-cap gold companies.
All companies within MVGDXJTR derive at least 50% of their revenue from gold or silver mining activities.

A leveraged ETF returns a multiple of earnings or losses seen in an underlying index on any given trading day.
In the case of JNUG, if MVGDXJTR increases 2% in one day, JNUG will return 4%. If MVGDXJTR decreases by 2%, JNUG will result in a loss of 4%.
JNUG and other leveraged ETFs can be bought or sold on an exchange just like any stock.
