On September 24, Direxion Daily Semiconductors Bull 3x Shares fell 5.33% in pre-market trading to $138.5/share, with turnover of $126 million, extending the prior session's 5.62% intraday decline.
The continued selloff follows a stretch of sharp gains — the ETF had surged approximately 14.77% in recent sessions before profit-taking intensified. A September BofA Global Fund Manager Survey showed that 53% of respondents identified long global semiconductors as the most crowded trade for the fourth consecutive month, while 33% flagged overinvestment concerns among related companies. Separately, A-share semiconductor storage stocks also declined broadly on September 24 amid no new fundamental catalysts, with analysts pointing to elevated valuations and high position crowdedness driving coordinated selling. The triple-leverage mechanism inherent to this ETF amplifies both gains and losses, exacerbating the magnitude of the pullback.
The fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in financial instruments that provide 3X daily leveraged exposure to an index tracking the thirty largest U.S. listed semiconductor companies. The fund is non-diversified.
