DXO is showing "Unusual" trading activities. The price pattern is irregular. Since DXO ETN is relatively new, you need to pay close attention.

It looks like a lot of price manipulation is going on with higher volatility even though it is 2x.

Recently, the trading volumes have exploded during the last 2-3 weeks with unusual price and trading pattern and hours.

Despite the economic slowdown, there are still some growth businesses. Take manufacturing, for instance. No, not auto or widget making. I'm talking about the manufacturing of exchange-traded portfolios.

You've no doubt noted, in particular, that the number of exchange-traded notes and funds tracking the Oil market has ballooned. Which inevitably leads to questions on their performance. Especially in these credit-addled times, questions abound about exchange-traded notes.

So here's the quick-and-dirty. There are three long and two short notes. The original long note was the iPath DJ-AIG Crude Oil Total Return ETN (NYSE Arca: OIL). It's been around a couple of years and is an obligation of the U.K.'s Barclays Bank plc.

Then, with near-perfect timing, the PowerShares suite of oil notes was launched this summer, just in time to catch the swoon in oil prices. These notes, offering single and double exposure - short and long - to the Oil sector of the Deutsche Bank Liquid Commodity Index, are issued by the German bank's London branch.

Spot NYMEX oil has sunk 71.7% since the PowerShares notes' launch. Here's how the notes have responded:

[*~1Best~*]

All of the PowerShares DB Crude Oil ETNs are based on a total return version of the Deutsche Bank Liquid Commodity Index – Optimum Yield Oil™, which is composed of certain crude oil futures contracts. The Long and Double Long PowerShares DB Crude Oil ETNs are based on the Optimum Yield™ version of the Index, and the Short and Double Short PowerShares DB Crude Oil ETNs are based on the Standard version of the index.

KEY = "monthly performance"
Others are "daily performance "
................................
Deutsche Bank (DB) has once again expanded its lineup of leveraged and inverse exchange-traded notes covering portions of the commodities markets with the launch of two product suites for base metals and crude oil on the NYSE. This time, however, the ETNs are being co-launched with PowerShares in what seems to be a strategic branding move.

The new funds include the following:

PowerShares DB Base Metals Double Short ETN: (NYSE: BOM)
PowerShares DB Base Metals Double Long ETN: (NYSE: BDD)
PowerShares DB Base Metals Short ETN: (NYSE: BOS)
PowerShares DB Base Metals Long ETN: (NYSE: BDG)
PowerShares DB Crude Oil Double Short ETN: (NYSE: DTO)
PowerShares DB Crude Oil Short ETN: (NYSE: SZO)
PowerShares DB Crude Oil Double Long ETN: (NYSE: DXO)
PowerShares DB Crude Oil Long ETN: (NYSE: OLO)
The long and double long ETNs seek to capture 100% and 200% of their underlying indexes' monthly performance, while the short and double short ETNs promise -100% and -200% of their underlying indexes' monthly performance.

The base metals ETNs are linked to the Deutsche Bank Liquid Commodity Index - Optimum Yield Industrial Metals, which tracks aluminum, copper and zinc futures contracts. The oil contracts, however, are linked to two different indexes. SZO and DTO, the short notes, are tied to the Deutsche Bank Liquid Commodity Index - Light Crude; while OLO and DXO, the long notes, are tied to the Deutsche Bank Liquid Commodity Index - Optimum Yield Crude Oil. The "Optimum Yield" index uses a different roll methodology that optimizes returns when the oil market is in backwardation and minimizes losses when the market is in contango.

All of the new ETNs charge an expense ratio of 0.75%.

PowerShares and Deutsche Bank recently renewed their co-branding agreement, thus the new ETNs are marketed under the name "PowerShares DB." The existing Deutsche Bank ETNs also will be rebranded accordingly. The change makes sense as Deutsche Bank had three groups of exchange-traded products: its commodity ETNs marketed under its own name, a group of mainly currency ETNs marketed through the ELEMENTS ETN platform and the PowerShares DB commodity exchange-traded funds. By co-branding the commodity ETNs, Deutsche Bank leverages the strength of the PowerShares brand, which is well-known in the exchange-traded products area and also links its newer ETNs to the well-established PowerShares DB family of commodity ETFs.
