Capture Daily Moves in Two of the Most Event-Driven Stocks
NEW YORK —August 6, 2025—Direxion, a leading provider of ETFs for tactical traders, and a pioneer in Single Stock Daily Leveraged & Inverse ETFs, today launched four new funds offering amplified, or inverse, exposure to two high-profile names: Shopify Inc. (SHOP) and Lockheed Martin Corporation (LMT). These ETFs provide traders with the tools to express short-term views on both e-commerce momentum and global defense trends.
The new funds include:
“These two companies sit on opposite ends of the tactical spectrum – Shopify represents high-growth, high-volatility e-commerce exposure, while Lockheed Martin is a defense sector anchor tied to long-term government spending and global events,” said Mo Sparks, Chief Product Officer at Direxion. “Whether traders are reacting to earnings, geopolitical headlines, or sector rotations, these new ETFs are the first to offer a powerful way to express conviction toward each with tactical precision.”
Designed for active traders, Direxion’s pairs of Single Stock Leveraged & Inverse ETFs are built for short-term trading – not long-term investing. These ground-breaking trading tools are intended for experienced traders with a high risk tolerance. Unlike traditional ETFs, or even other leveraged and/or inverse ETFs, these products track the price of a single stock rather than an index, offering no diversification benefits.
All Direxion Leveraged and Inverse ETFs are intended only for investors with an in-depth understanding of the risks associated with seeking leveraged investment results, and who plan to actively monitor and manage their positions. There is no guarantee these ETFs will meet their objective. Please visit the Direxion Leveraged and Inverse ETF Education Center, where you will find educational brochures, videos, and a self-paced online course to help you understand if Leveraged and Inverse ETFs – including Single Stock Daily LETFs – are right for you.

Investing in the funds involves a high degree of risk. Unlike traditional ETFs, or even other leveraged and/or inverse ETFs, these leveraged and/or inverse single-stock ETFs track the price of a single stock rather than an index, eliminating the benefits of diversification. Leveraged and inverse ETFs pursue daily leveraged investment objectives, which means they are riskier than alternatives which do not use leverage. They seek daily goals and should not be expected to track the underlying stock’s performance over periods longer than one day. They are not suitable for all investors and should be utilized only by investors who understand leverage risk and who actively manage their investments. The Funds will lose money if the underlying stock’s performance is flat, and it is possible that the Bull Fund will lose money even if the underlying stock’s performance increases, and the Bear Fund will lose money even if the underlying stock’s performance decreases, over a period longer than a single day. Investing in the Funds is not equivalent to investing directly in SHOP or LMT.
Direxion Shares Risks – An investment in a Fund involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. Each Fund is non-diversified and includes risks associated with a Fund concentrating its investments in a particular security, industry, sector, or geographic region which can result in increased volatility. A Fund's investments in derivatives such as futures contracts and swaps may pose risks in addition to, and greater than, those associated with directly investing in securities or other investments, including imperfect correlations with underlying investments or the Fund's other portfolio holdings, higher price volatility and lack of availability. As a result, the value of an investment in a Fund may change quickly and without warning.
Leverage Risk – The Bull Fund obtains investment exposure in excess of its net assets by utilizing leverage and may lose more money in market conditions that are adverse to its investment objective than a fund that does not utilize leverage. A total loss may occur in a single day. Leverage will also have the effect of magnifying any differences in the Fund’s correlation with SHOP or LMT and may increase the volatility of the Bull Fund.
Daily Correlation Risk - A number of factors may affect the Bull Fund’s ability to achieve a high degree of correlation with SHOP or LMT and therefore achieve its daily leveraged investment objective. The Bull Fund’s exposure to SHOP or LMT is impacted by SHOP or LMT’s movement. Because of this, it is unlikely that the Bull Fund will be perfectly exposed to SHOP or LMT at the end of each day. The possibility of the Bull Fund being materially over- or under-exposed to SHOP or LMT increases on days when SHOP or LMT is volatile near the close of the trading day.
Daily Inverse Correlation Risk - A number of factors may affect the Bear Fund’s ability to achieve a high degree of inverse correlation with SHOP or LMT and therefore achieve its daily inverse investment objective. The Bear Fund’s exposure to SHOP or LMT is impacted by SHOP or LMT’s movement. Because of this, it is unlikely that the Bear Fund will be perfectly exposed to SHOP or LMT at the end of each day. The possibility of the Bear Fund being materially over- or under-exposed to SHOP or LMT increases on days when SHOP or LMT is volatile near the close of the trading day.
Shopify, Inc. Investing Risk – SHOP faces risks associated with: growth may be difficult to sustain; highly competitive business structure; data breach and privacy concerns; impact of the global economic conditions may adversely affect business operations; reliance on limited number of suppliers for payment processing; use of artificial intelligence may present additional risks; among other risks.
Lockhead Martin Corporation Investing Risk – LMT faces risks associated with: dependance on U.S. Government contracts; the F-35 program which is approximately 26% of the company’s net sales is reliant on continued government funding; extensive procurement laws and regulations; variability in current contracts and programs as well as performance and ability to control costs; more audits due to government contracts; heavy dependance on suppliers and subcontractors; reliant on development of new technology; public health events; international sales pose different economic, regulatory and competitive risks; among other risks.
Information Technology Sector Risk – The value of stocks of information technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technology is particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technology product cycles, rapid product obsolescence, government regulation, and competition, both domestically and internationally, including competition from competitors with lower production costs.
Industrials Sector Risk – Stock prices of issuers in the industrials sector are affected by supply and demand both for their specific product or service and for industrials sector products in general.
Aerospace and Defense Industry Risk – The aerospace and defense industry can be significantly affected by government regulation and spending policies because companies involved in this industry rely, to a significant extent, on government demand for their products and services.
Additional risks of each Fund include Effects of Compounding and Market Volatility Risk, Derivatives Risk, Counterparty Risk, Rebalancing Risk, Intra-Day Investment Risk, Industry Concentration Risk, Market Risk, Indirect Investment Risk, and Cash Transaction Risk. Additionally, for the Direxion Daily SHOP Bear 1X ETF and Direxion Daily LMT Bear 1X ETF, Shorting or Inverse Risk. Please see the summary and full prospectuses for a more complete description of these and other risks of a Fund.
