Direxion Large Cap Bear 3x Shares (BGZ) — This exchange-traded fund (ETF) seeks to replicate, net of expenses, 300% of the inverse (opposite) daily performance of the Russell 1000 Index. Therefore, it is considered a very speculative trading vehicle.
But for those who are either hedging a big-cap portfolio or trading against those stocks, this could provide the leverage needed to offset a sharp pullback in those stocks.
On Tuesday, BGZ closed above its 50-day moving average, which gives it a possible trading target of $42, and a longer-term target of about $75.
This speculative ETF should only be bought by those who can afford the risk of a very volatile stock. And remember to always use a stop-loss when buying stocks with a high-risk factor.
