Traders looking for an extra dose of leverage can look to funds such as the Direxion Daily Gold Miners Index Bear 2X Shares (DUST). DUST seeks daily investment results before fees and expenses of 200% of the inverse of the daily performance of the NYSE Arca Gold Miners Index. Gold prices are down about 13% within the past six months as they continue to face downward pressure from rising inflation, which is fueling a hawkish U.S. Federal Reserve.
