UPRO ETF

So, what is the UPRO ETF?

One way to look at the UPRO ETF is to consider it an S&P 500 "power-up" that allows you to get the returns of three S&P 500 "tickets" for the price of just one. But that's not the whole story...

It's not just the S&P 500: In reality, it's not like one UPRO ETF share gets you three S&P 500 shares, it aims to expose your portfolio to that kind of leverage. The actual holdings of the UPRO ETF are a mix of swap agreements, some individual stocks from the S&P 500, and S&P 500 index futures.

Risks involved: Just as the UPRO ETF exposes you to 3x the gains of the S&P 500, it also exposes you to 3x the losses. It's the risk that comes with leveraged ETFs like UPRO.

Short or long term investment: UPRO is often used by traders for short-term betting on market movements, rather than by long-term, buy-and-hold investors. alphaAI is manages risk in response to real-time market conditions to trade UPRO.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about alphaAI.

How does alphaAI work?

At alphaAI, every strategy has four modes: Surge, Steady, Cautious, and Defense. Our Investment AI will automatically switch between modes based on market conditions. 

The idea is simple: When the market looks good, we invest more to help you earn more. When the market seems risky, we invest less to help protect your money.

Learn more about our investment strategy modes.

How does alphaAI use AI?

We use AI to automate the entire investment process, from beginning to end.

At the core of our industry-leading AI system is a team of predictive machine learning models. These models are trained on decades of data from more than 10,000 global stocks, analyzing over 10 billion data points on average. Each model is built for a specific purpose, and together they work as a team to make smarter trading decisions.

Our portfolio management system then takes these predictions and uses a clear, rules-based process to decide how to act. This includes making trades and managing risk, all tailored to your unique investor profile. Plus, we’ve built in multiple safety measures to ensure that every decision stays within strict, pre-defined limits.

Read more about our technology.

Is it safe to let AI handle my money?

Yes, absolutely! There’s no chance our AI will take unexpected actions – and here’s why.

At its core, AI is simply machine learning (ML), which is a branch of math that uses models to find and learn from patterns in data. We use these predictive models alongside a clear, rules-based system to make trades and manage risk, all tailored to your unique investor profile. To add an extra layer of protection, we’ve built in multiple safety protocols to ensure every action stays within strict guidelines.

So, there’s no need to worry – AI isn’t sentient, and it can’t make its own decisions. It’s just a tool we use to process data and generate smart, reliable investment strategies.

How is alphaAI different from other roboadvisors?

alphaAI is the only roboadvisor that adjusts your portfolio to the markets in real-time. Other roboadvisors use a purely passive investment approach, which leaves you unable to take advantage of market trends.

What is alphaAI’s investment philosophy? How do you control risk and drawdowns?

Our goal is simple: deliver better risk-adjusted returns than the market. 

‍Our AI system adjusts your strategy to your unique investor profile and risk tolerance. We adapt your portfolio’s risk level to the markets in real time, helping keep your portfolio’s volatility and drawdowns within your defined acceptable range.

Read more about our investment philosophy.

Why does alphaAI focus on leveraged ETFs? Aren’t they highly risky?

We focus on leveraged ETFs because they have the potential for big returns. For example, TQQQ has delivered an average return of 41% per year since it started. That’s the kind of growth that gets us excited — and if it excites you too, you’re exactly the type of client we’re built for.  

But it’s important to understand both sides of the story. While TQQQ has delivered strong long-term results, it also lost 80% in 2022, which is completely unacceptable from an investment standpoint. That’s exactly the kind of risk we work hard to manage. Our main focus is protecting you from those big losses by using automated tools to adjust how much of your portfolio is invested based on market conditions and your personal risk tolerance.

To give you some perspective, the S&P 500 has an average annual volatility of 20% — think of volatility as a way to measure how much risk you’re taking. With our technology, you decide how much risk you’re comfortable with — less, more, or about the same as the S&P 500 — and our AI takes care of the rest to keep your portfolio on track, with the goal of delivering better returns than the level of risk taken on.

Learn about why loss minimization is the key to building wealth.

How hands-on or off is alphaAI?

alphaAI is completely hands-off – set it and forget it!

All you have to do is set your investor profile and customize your strategies. After that, we take care of everything for you. We automatically make trades and manage your portfolio’s risk in response to market conditions. Our leading-edge AI system stays on top of the market so you don’t have to. Rest easy knowing that regardless of what the market does, we are responding in the best way for you and your financial goals.
