Top 10 Leveraged ETFs of 2013

Direxion Daily Gold Miners Bear 3X Shares (NYSEArca: DUST)

YTD: 165.7%

Comment: If not for its own split, DUST would be residing in triple-digit territory. The way things are going for gold miners, it may not be long before DUST gets there. This is how fast DUST can move: In the month ending Dec. 2, the ETF was up almost 57%. Great for active traders, but not suitable for conservative investors. [ETF Chart of the Day: Gold Miners]
