abstract: Forward stock splits were announced for certain leveraged ETFs managed by Tidal Financial Group and Defiance ETFs. The action increases the number of shares outstanding while proportionally reducing share price — no change to net asset value or investor equity. Splits are administrative, not performance-related; they do not reflect fund strategy changes, new products, or market outlook shifts.

additional property: How the Spin Works
  type: PropertyValue
  value: The story frames a shift as already underway, inevitable, or broadly accepted so resistance or skepticism feels out of step. Watch for loaded terms such as forward stock splits, select leveraged ETFs, investor accessibility. The distribution reads as promotional distribution. A pressure point: No discussion of how splits affect options pricing, margin requirements, or tax treatment for leveraged positions.
