Why Leveraged ETFs Are Bound to Deteriorate

What's interesting is if it continues to go down and down and down the inefficiency actually helps you. 3 consecutive 5% down months yield a -14.26% cumulative return on an index, but for a 2x ETF it yields -27.1% not (2 X -14.26%). It becomes inefficient when there are up swings and down swings (which of course there are) But I do need help on my hypothetical! Great article!
