FAS uses swaps and derivatives to deliver three times the daily return of the Financial Select Sector Index. When JPMorgan Chase & Co. ( NYSE:JPM), Bank of America Corporation ( NYSE:BAC), and Visa Inc. ( NYSE:V) (the fund's largest holdings) climb 2% in a day, FAS targets a 6% gain. The fund holds $2.5 billion in assets, with 59% in financial stocks and roughly 33% in cash instruments and swaps that create the leverage.
