NUGT holdings
NUGT reports 3 holdings and behaves like 1.8 equally weighted ones, computed from its SEC Form N-PORT filing for 2026-07-31. The fact sheet publishes the first number; this page computes the second, and traces it across 27 quarters of filings.
Measured concentration
as of 2026-07-31This figure is not comparable with other funds
swap and futures notional is 147% of net assets: the fund's exposure is delivered by derivatives, and a count of its filed positions does not describe it. See the exposure section for what the notional is written on
54% held in short-term investment vehicles: this is a cash-like fund, and its holding count measures something different
42.6% of net assets is securities-lending cash collateral, excluded from the figure; counted as filed the fund would read 2.1
The figure below is what the filing says, published unchanged. What it may not do is sit beside a plain long-only fund and be read as the same quantity. How comparability is decided.
Computed by this site from the fund's SEC Form N-PORT filing; what the measure does not tell you · every fund in one table · hold it with other funds? X-ray the mix. Pricing: 100% at a quoted market price (level 1), one issuer country.
What stands out
as of 2026-07-31The largest line in NUGT's filing is not a stock but Vaneck Gold Miners ETF, a equity position at 52.86% of net assets.
Each sentence is read from the fund's own SEC filing; the class median is computed across the comparable short-term funds on this site. Nothing here is a view on the fund.

As filed, collateral included
42.62% collateralNUGT's filing lists 4 positions including 42.62% of net assets in securities-lending cash collateral. Counted as filed the fund reads 2.1 effective holdings with a top ten of 115.77%; on its own investments — the figure above — it reads 1.8 with a top ten of 100%. The collateral is matched by a liability and is not a holding the fund chose; since 2026-09-18 every figure on this site sets it aside (methodology). Both numbers are in the data.

Returns the fund reported
2019-08 – 2026-04Monthly total returns from Item B.5 of NUGT's own filings, 81 months on record. Not computed here and not from a price feed.
Cross-checked against a series computed separately from prices: median difference — percentage points over 0 months, which is roughly the distributions. Every month with the filing it came from: NUGT.json · all funds.
Who borrows NUGT's shares
2026-07-31The fund lends its holdings, and Item B.4.a of the filing names every firm holding them. At 2026-07-31, $6m was out to 1 borrower.
| Borrower | On loan | Share of the loan |
|---|---|---|
| Jefferies LLC | $6m | 100.0% |
The filing reports no cash collateral position against this loan. Collateral taken in a form the fund does not hold as a position does not appear in N-PORT, so this is silence rather than absence. What the collateral figure can and cannot show. Every quarter NUGT has filed, with each borrower: NUGT.json · all funds.
Since the previous filing
2026-01-31 → 2026-04-304 positions became 4: 0 added (0.0% of the fund at the later date), 0 dropped (0.0% at the earlier date). Half the sum of all weight changes, a turnover proxy: 12.4%. Positions are matched on identifiers, so a security whose identifier changed shows as one drop and one add. Every filing of NUGT compared this way, as a feed: changes.xml · all funds: filings received.

Asset categories and pricing
as of 2026-07-3154.42% short-term investment, 45.58% equity as filed; 100.0% carried at a quoted market price (fair-value level 1). Categories and levels are the filer's; what a low level-1 share does and does not mean is in the measure's page.
Derivative exposure and counterparties
as of 2026-04-30A position count cannot describe a fund that uses derivatives, because a swap is filed at its unrealised gain, not its exposure. These are the notionals the fund itself reported, against net assets of $1.02B. Notional of an interest-rate or currency swap is not equity exposure.
| Swap counterparty | Notional | % of net assets |
|---|---|---|
| Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC | $312M | 30.45% |
| CITIBANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION | $308M | 30.1% |
| UBS AG | $308M | 30.08% |
| JPMorgan Securities LLC | $301M | 29.35% |
| Bank of America NA | $189M | 18.44% |
| BNP PARIBAS | $89M | 8.73% |
Financing leg as filed: the fund pays 1 month Sofr + spread + 4.52% on $1.51B of long swap notional . Issuers fill the spread field differently (some file the all-in rate), so compare within an issuer, not across.
