Hi Tom101

We have discussed this ad nausium in the past and decided there are issues with the 2x and 3x funds (and particularly the inverse funds) that make them not the best choices for AIMing. While volatility is a good thing I guess you can have too much of a good thing.

In general I happen to like to AIM ETFs either by style or industry. They are safer than AIMing individual stocks in that they can't go to zero.

Thanks for the question
Toofuzzy

Take the road less traveled. It will make all the difference.
