Tradr ETFs (SKHY) launched two single-stock leveraged ETFs on Cboe that provide daily 2X long and 2X short exposure to SK hynix's U.S.-listed shares (Nasdaq: SKHY). The new products are the Tradr 2X Long SK hynix Daily ETF (SKHA) and Tradr 2X Short SK hynix Daily ETF (SKHN), which seek 200% and -200% of the semiconductor and memory chip maker's daily performance.

According to Tradr, these ETFs are designed for sophisticated investors and professional traders to express high-conviction bullish or bearish views without using margin or options. The launch expands Tradr's lineup to 76 leveraged ETFs and is accompanied by extensive risk disclosures highlighting the potential for total loss and performance divergence over periods longer than one day.

News Explained

Tradr calls SKHA and SKHN launched, but says they were expected to open for trading on July 28, 2026; the disclosure therefore establishes the products’ availability announcement while leaving their trading commencement as a same-day milestone.

leveraged ETFs financial
"Tradr Launches Two Leveraged ETFs on SK hynix"
Leveraged ETFs are exchange-traded funds designed to amplify the daily performance of an underlying index or asset, often by two or three times, using financial techniques to boost gains and losses. They matter to investors because they can act like a financial magnifying glass—quickly increasing profits in short-term moves but also rapidly increasing losses, so they are typically used for short-term trading or tactical bets rather than long-term investing.
inverse ETFs financial
"The strategies include leveraged and inverse ETFs"
An inverse ETF is an exchange-traded fund built to move in the opposite direction of a specific market index or sector on a given day, so it rises when that target falls and vice versa. Investors use them like an insurance policy or a short bet — to hedge against falling markets or try to profit from declines — but because they reset daily and can drift from the target over time, they are higher-risk and generally unsuitable for long-term buy-and-hold use.
short ETFs financial
"for short ETFs, understand the risk of shorting"
Short ETFs are exchange-traded funds engineered to move opposite the price of a chosen index, sector, or asset so their share price rises when the target falls. They let investors bet on or hedge against market drops using the ease of a stock trade—like buying insurance on a portfolio—but often involve extra costs and can lose value over time if held longer than intended, so careful timing and risk management matter.
net asset value financial
"more than a maximum percentage of its net asset value"
Net asset value is the total value of an investment fund's assets minus any liabilities, divided by the number of shares or units outstanding. It represents the per-share worth of the fund, similar to how the value of a house is determined by its total worth after debts are subtracted. Investors use it to gauge the true value of their holdings and to compare different investment options.

SKHA and SKHN seek 2X long and short exposure to South Korea's memory chip leader

NEW YORK, July 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Tradr ETFs, a provider of ETFs designed for sophisticated investors and professional traders, today launched two single-stock leveraged ETFs with long and short exposure to SK hynix Inc.'s U.S-listed shares (Nasdaq: SKHY). The funds, listed on Cboe, seek to deliver 200% and -200% of the daily performance of the South Korean semiconductor and memory chip maker.

The following ETFs are expected to open for trading today:

  • Tradr 2X Long SK hynix Daily ETF (Cboe: SKHA)
  • Tradr 2X Short SK hynix Daily ETF (Cboe: SKHN)
"traders can express a high-conviction bullish or bearish view on SK hynix"

"Fresh off its much anticipated recent U.S. listing, SK hynix stands out as one of the world's most important DRAM suppliers and is the leader in high bandwidth memory as demand for its products from AI hyperscalers continues to accelerate," said Matt Markiewicz, Head of Product and Capital Markets at Tradr ETFs. "With SKHA and SKHN, traders can express a high-conviction bullish or bearish view on SK hynix and the memory cycle using a familiar ETF structure, without the need for margin accounts or options."

About Tradr ETFs
Tradr ETFs are designed for sophisticated investors and professional traders who are looking to express high conviction investment views. The strategies include leveraged and inverse ETFs that seek short or long exposure to actively traded stocks and ETFs.

IMPORTANT RISK INFORMATION

Tradr ETFs are for sophisticated investors and professional traders with high conviction views and are very different from most other ETFs. The Funds are intended to be used as short-term trading vehicles and pursue leveraged investment objectives, which means they are riskier than alternatives that do not use leverage because the Funds magnify the performance of their underlying security. The volatility of the underlying security may affect a Fund's return as much as, or more than, the return of the underlying security.

Investors in the fund should: (a) understand the risks associated with the use of leverage; (b) understand the consequences of seeking inverse and leveraged investment results; (c) for short ETFs, understand the risk of shorting; (d) intend to actively monitor and manage their investment. Fund performance will likely be significantly different than the benchmark over periods longer than the specified reset period and the performance may trend in the opposite direction than its benchmark over periods other than that period.

Leverage increases the risk of a total loss of an investor's investment, may increase the volatility of the Funds, and may magnify any differences between the performance of the Funds and their reference security. The Funds seek leveraged investment results for a specific period (daily, monthly or quarterly). The exact exposure of an investment in the Fund intra-period will depend upon the movement of the reference security from the end of the prior period until the time of investment by the investor.

The Fund will not attempt to position its portfolio to ensure it does not gain or lose more than a maximum percentage of its net asset value on a given trading day. As a consequence, investors in a Fund that seeks two times daily performance would lose all of their money if the Fund's underlying security moves more than 50% in a direction adverse to the Fund on a given trading day.

ETFs involve risk including possible loss of the full principal value. There is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective. Principal risks and other important risks may be found in the prospectus. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

ETF shares are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the ETF. There can be no guarantee that an active trading market for ETF shares will develop or be maintained, or that their listing will continue or remain unchanged. Buying or selling ETF shares on an exchange may require the payment of brokerage commissions and frequent trading may incur brokerage costs that detract significantly from investment returns.

Investors should carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of the Funds. This and other important information about the Fund is contained in the Prospectus, which can be obtained by visiting www.tradretfs.com. The Prospectus should be read carefully before investing.
