On July 29, Direxion Daily MU Bull 2X Shares rose 8.15% overnight, trading at $26.45/share, with turnover of $14.11 million.
On the news front, the underlying asset Micron Technology rebounded 3.65% overnight to $850.6/share, as the broader semiconductor sector strengthened. NVIDIA gained 0.54%, Intel rose 2.79%, Broadcom added 0.85%, and TSMC climbed 1.45%. The ETF had previously experienced sharp multi-session declines after noted investor Michael Burry disclosed an expanded short position in Micron Technology and the Philadelphia Semiconductor ETF, citing concerns that chip demand is being artificially driven through off-balance-sheet financing arrangements rather than genuine end-customer orders.
As a 2X leveraged ETF, the product's structural characteristics amplified the underlying asset's rebound, resulting in gains significantly exceeding those of the reference stock itself.
