ProShares Ultra S&P500 ETF is a leveraged exchange-traded fund designed to offer a 2x return on a daily basis as compared to the S&P 500. It mimics the index and has had a negligible drift. The S&P 500 is a little overweight in tech-focused large-caps, which are expected to do well over the next decade. However, the SSO ETF's returns may differ in the long run. SSO provided robust total returns during 2023 and double-digit returns over a longer time period. A renewed sense of bullishness makes it more attractive.
