    BBUS is advertising something and delivering something else

    Yesterday we closed at 11.49

    The market dropped 0.40%.

    Meaning..today we should go 0.40 x 2 (or 0.40 x 2.75)

    In reality share opened 1.13% negative, traded most morning at 1.65% to 1.90% negative.

    Completly the opposite.

    This is in my view a perfect case of misleading clients./


    (copy of part of their advertisement)
    Put simply, if the:

    • S&P 500 moves up 1% in USD terms on a day
      the Fund is expected to move down between -2.0% and -2.75% in AUD terms
    • S&P 500 moves down -1% in USD terms on a day
      the Fund is expected to go up between 2.0% to 2.75% in AUD terms

    Another way to think about it is one USD burger is equivalent to at least two inverted AUD meat pies.
