According to @StockMKTNewz, Direxion, a partner of StockMKTNewz, launched new ETFs for traders last week, including a 2x Semiconductor ETF under the ticker TSXU that includes AMD exposure (source: @StockMKTNewz on X, Oct 6, 2025). He characterized the rollout as lucky timing given AMD’s recent move, highlighting the immediate relevance for leveraged semiconductor trading strategies (source: @StockMKTNewz on X, Oct 6, 2025). The post did not mention any direct cryptocurrency market impact (source: @StockMKTNewz on X, Oct 6, 2025).

According to Eric Balchunas, ETF issuers specializing in high-risk investments, such as ARK, ProShares, and Direxion, were hit the hardest asset-wise by the market drop this year. In contrast, those focusing on buffer/cash strategies held up best, as reported by @psarofagis.
