In a move reflecting the growing demand for speculative tools in high-tech sectors, Defiance ETFs has announced the launch of the VELL fund. This new ETF provides 2X leveraged exposure to the daily performance of Velo3D, Inc., a specialist in metal additive manufacturing technology. According to reports, the fund aims to provide active traders with amplified short-term bullish exposure to the company's technology, which is widely utilized in the space and defense sectors.
The launch comes amid intensifying competition in the 3D printing industry, as Velo3D strives to capture market share from peers such as Desktop Metal and 3D Systems. Per market data, the introduction of single-stock leveraged ETFs often contributes to increased liquidity and price volatility. This coincides with a broader recovery in manufacturing sentiment, as the US ISM Manufacturing PMI reached 54 in June 2026 according to economic calendar data.
