# ETF 1M Gainers & Losers
**Query:** ETF top gainers and losers in 1 month
**Data as of:** 2026-09-23

Complete ETF leaderboard for the one-month period through September 23, 2026. The top gainers are dominated by digital-asset vehicles (Zcash, Hyperliquid, Solana), tanker shipping, gasoline and semiconductor-memory funds; the biggest laggards are precious-metal miners, uranium, rare-earth/critical-materials funds, homebuilders and aerospace & defense. Each table carries 1-day, 1-month, 6-month returns, top holdings, distance from the 52-week high and position versus the 150-day average.

### ETF 1-Month Performance Leaderboard

### How to read this screen
Every active ETF in the universe was ranked by 1-month total return as of the latest session (funds without a full month of trading history are excluded so the ranking stays comparable).

- **Top 1M Gainers** — the momentum leaders, split largely between digital-asset vehicles, energy/commodity funds and the AI/memory-semiconductor complex.
- **Top 1M Losers** — the laggards, concentrated in precious-metal and silver miners, uranium, rare-earth and critical-materials funds, plus rate-sensitive homebuilders and defense.

Comparing the 1-month column against the 6-month column separates fresh reversals from sustained trends, while %-from-52W-high and %-above-150D-SMA show how extended (or broken) each move is. Note the dispersion inside the two groups: this snapshot followed a broad de-risking session where breadth deteriorated sharply, so the extremes here are unusually wide.

### What the two lists say together

**A commodity split, not a single commodity story.** Energy-linked funds (gasoline, crude oil, tanker shipping) sit near the top while precious-metal and industrial-metal funds occupy almost the entire bottom. That divergence — oil bid, gold and silver sold — is more consistent with a liquidity/positioning unwind than a change in inflation expectations.

**Crypto leadership is narrow and high-beta.** The digital-asset gainers are effectively single-token vehicles. They are the strongest performers on the board, but their leadership is a positioning signal rather than a durable, earnings-backed trend, and they carry premium/discount and launch-liquidity risk.

**AI-adjacent semis are the only equity complex that kept working.** Memory and accelerator funds appear in the gainer list while the market's average stock fell, which tells you where capital was still willing to concentrate. Thematically these funds overlap heavily — a memory fund, a fabless fund and an AI basket frequently hold the same handful of names.

**The laggards are crowded, formerly hot trades.** Gold/silver miners, rare earths and uranium have been popular momentum themes; several are now well off their highs and below their 150-day averages, meaning the trend itself has turned, not just the month. Homebuilders are a separate, rate-driven story.

**Caveat on single-theme funds.** Many of these vehicles are small and thinly traded. Wide bid-ask spreads, limited creation activity and concentrated single-name exposure can make realized results diverge from the underlying asset — particularly in the newer crypto and rare-earth products.

### Top 1M Gainers — ETFs

| Symbol | Fund Name | ETF Type | ETF Theme | 1D Return | 1M Return | 6M Return | Top Holdings | % from 52W High | % above 150D SMA | Comments |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| ZCSH | The Zcash ETF Shares | commodity | Zcash | -0.23% | 89.70% | 574.69% | — | -0.23% | 217.59% | A single-asset privacy-coin vehicle, so the move is pure Zcash beta rather than a diversified crypto basket. Very small asset base means spreads and tracking error can widen sharply on redemptions; performance here tracks a niche narrative, not the broader digital-asset complex. |
| BWET | Breakwave Tanker Shipping ETF | theme | Tanker Shipping | 8.41% | 58.90% | 825.75% | AGPXX | -15.22% | 214.95% | Tanker freight rates are the entire thesis — this fund is effectively a leveraged bet on crude/product tanker day-rates and is highly volatile. Holdings are largely cash-like collateral, so it trades as a shipping-cycle proxy rather than a diversified equity basket. |
| UGA | United States Gasoline Fund LP | commodity | Gasoline | 4.86% | 21.82% | 51.42% | — | 0.00% | 36.21% | Physically backed gasoline futures exposure; the fund benefits from crack spreads and refinery tightness but rolls contracts monthly, so contango erodes returns for holders over time. A tactical energy play, not a buy-and-hold. |
| BHYP | Common Shares of Beneficial Interest of Bitwise Hyperliquid ETF | theme | Hyperliquid | -2.99% | 20.26% | — | — | -2.99% | — | Newly launched Hyperliquid-linked vehicle, so it is still building liquidity and can trade at meaningful premiums/discounts to NAV. The underlying is a decentralized perpetuals exchange token — high beta to crypto risk appetite. |
| BSOL | Bitwise Solana Staking ETF | theme | Solana Staking | -3.31% | 18.94% | 32.88% | — | -38.32% | 37.91% | Staking version of Solana exposure, so it adds a yield component on top of spot price. The group's returns are nearly interchangeable — the three Solana vehicles here are highly correlated, so owning more than one adds little diversification. |
| GSOL | Grayscale Solana Staking ETF | other | Solana | -3.24% | 18.92% | 32.29% | — | -51.67% | 37.51% | Sister product to the Bitwise Solana Staking fund; Grayscale's higher fee structure and trust-conversion history make it the pricier way to get the same exposure. Same underlying driver as the other Solana vehicles. |
| SOLZ | Solana ETF | theme | Solana | -3.31% | 18.03% | 28.40% | — | -54.20% | 35.06% | The plain-vanilla Solana tracker of the group — no staking yield, so it lags its staking peers in strong markets. Being well below its 52-week high shows how much of the earlier crypto drawdown this complex is still climbing out of. |
| IGPT | Invesco AI and Next Gen Software ETF | theme | AI & Software | -1.42% | 14.32% | 70.26% | NVDA, META, AMD, MU, GOOGL, 000660.KQ, SNDK, INTC, 2454.TW, STX | -5.05% | 21.97% | Broad AI-and-software mandate with a heavy semiconductor and megacap software weight, plus Korean and Taiwanese memory names. Gains here are really a memory/accelerator demand story, so the fund is sensitive to any capex guidance wobble from the hyperscalers. |
| DRAM | Roundhill Memory ETF | theme | Memory | -2.70% | 14.04% | — | 005930.KQ, 000660.KQ, FGXXX, STX | -23.32% | — | Concentrated memory-chip basket dominated by Korean and US memory makers — one of the most cyclical corners of semis. Highly sensitive to DRAM/NAND contract pricing, so it can round-trip quickly if supply discipline breaks. |
| AIS | VistaShares Artificial Intelligence Supercycle ETF | theme | Artificial Intelligence | -1.88% | 12.96% | 70.28% | 000660.KQ, MU, AMD, MRVL, TSM, SMTC, VRT, SIMO, INTC, 601138.SS | -15.04% | 18.16% | Themed 'supercycle' mandate spanning accelerators, networking and power/cooling vendors, so it captures the second-derivative beneficiaries of AI buildouts. Broader than a pure chip fund, but also more exposed to the industrials side of the trade. |
| CHPX | Global X AI Semiconductor & Quantum ETF | theme | AI Semiconductors & Quantum | -1.50% | 12.73% | 70.00% | MU, TSM, NVDA, AVGO, ASML, AMD, ANET, 000660.KQ, CSCO, 2454.TW | -8.45% | 19.67% | Blends AI semiconductor names with quantum-computing exposure, a pairing that behaves like a high-beta tech growth sleeve. Quantum names are narrative-driven and have little revenue today, so expect outsized swings both ways. |
| USO | United States Oil Fund | commodity | Crude Oil | 3.30% | 12.57% | 29.94% | — | -8.05% | 18.37% | Crude oil futures fund benefiting from the energy bid; like other commodity futures vehicles it is exposed to roll costs and does not pay a distribution. A tactical hedge against supply shocks rather than a core holding. |
| TRFK | Pacer Data and Digital Revolution ETF | theme | Data & Digital Revolution | -1.56% | 12.30% | 61.22% | NVDA, AVGO, MU, AMD, HYNSE, ORCL, CSCO, INTC, PANW, 000660.KQ | -8.16% | 18.12% | Data-infrastructure and digital-revolution basket that overlaps heavily with semiconductor and cloud-computing leaders. Diversified enough to soften single-name risk but still fundamentally a tech-growth fund. |
| SMHX | VanEck Fabless Semiconductor ETF | theme | Fabless Semiconductors | -1.20% | 12.25% | 60.15% | NVDA, AVGO, AMD, SNPS, QCOM, MRVL, CDNS, ALAB, MPWR, ARM | -11.05% | 15.08% | Fabless-only semiconductor exposure, which tilts toward design houses and away from capital-intensive fabs. That gives it higher gross-margin characteristics but also greater sensitivity to end-market demand cycles. |
| DISK | Tema Memory ETF | theme | Memory | -3.30% | 12.04% | — | — | -20.26% | — | Themed memory fund similar in intent to the other memory products, so it is largely redundant alongside them. Its below-high position highlights how much of the memory cycle this group gives back when pricing momentum stalls. |

### Top 1M Losers — ETFs

| Symbol | Fund Name | ETF Type | ETF Theme | 1D Return | 1M Return | 6M Return | Top Holdings | % from 52W High | % above 150D SMA | Comments |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| GDMN | WisdomTree Efficient Gold Plus Gold Miners Strategy Fund | other | Gold & Gold Miners | -5.17% | -16.32% | -2.00% | NEM, AEM.TO, ABX.TO, AU, K.TO, GFI, WPM.TO, FNV.TO, EVN.AX | -36.15% | -5.41% | Hybrid gold-plus-miners structure that pairs bullion with equity leverage, so it amplifies moves in both directions. Gold weakness plus miner underperformance is a double hit — the kind of setup that occurs when investors raise cash rather than rotate. |
| URNM | Sprott Uranium Miners ETF | theme | Uranium Miners | -4.11% | -13.79% | -16.88% | CCO.TO, U-U.TO, NXE.TO, DML.TO, PDN.AX, DYL.AX, KAP, EFR.TO, UEC, 1164.HK | -39.73% | -15.17% | Came off a sharp downtrend; mining equities are the highest-beta expression of the uranium theme and hinge on long-term contracting and reactor-build news flow. Deep drawdown from the 52-week high makes it a recovery bet, not momentum. |
| REMX | VanEck Rare Earth and Strategic Metals ETF | theme | Rare Earth Metals | -3.11% | -13.78% | -18.74% | PLS.AX, ALB, MP, LYC.AX, 600111.SS, ALM, SQM, 601958.SS, 600549.SS, 7610.TW | -37.22% | -21.08% | Rare-earth and strategic-metals basket tied closely to Chinese export-policy headlines and Western supply-chain buildout. Extremely policy-sensitive — rallies and selloffs tend to be news-driven rather than earnings-driven. |
| GPZ | VanEck Alternative Asset Manager ETF | theme | Alternative Asset Managers | -2.26% | -11.99% | 5.61% | BX, KKR, BN.TO, APO, ARES, EQT.ST, BAM.TO, ICG.L, CG | -25.47% | -3.85% | Alternative-manager basket (private equity, credit, asset gatherers) that is levered to deal activity, exit markets and fundraising. With financials broadly breaking down on breadth, this group reflects the market's growing concern about credit and marks. |
| SETM | Sprott Critical Materials ETF | theme | Critical Materials | -3.87% | -11.71% | -1.62% | FCX, KAP, CCO.TO, PLS.AX, LYC.AX, UEC, TECK-B.TO, ALB, BVN, SQM | -21.82% | -7.95% | Critical-materials mandate overlapping substantially with the rare-earth and uranium funds, so it carries correlated policy and commodity risk. Also exposed to copper and diversified miners, giving it some cyclical buffer. |
| REXC | Sprott Rare Earths Ex-China ETF | theme | Rare Earths | -2.96% | -9.97% | — | MP, LYC.AX, SRL.AX, NEO.TO, USAR, ILU.AX, LIN.AX, ALOY, CRML, BRE.AX | -29.55% | — | Ex-China rare-earth construct designed to isolate the Western supply-chain theme, but it is small and thinly traded. Newer fund with limited history, so tracking and liquidity risk are real considerations. |
| LIT | Global X Lithium & Battery Tech ETF | theme | Lithium & Battery | -2.45% | -9.67% | -1.22% | RIO, 6752.T, 002371.SZ, 006400.KQ, 6762.T, ALB, TSLA, 373220.KQ, 300750.SZ, PLS.AX | -24.06% | -8.94% | Lithium and battery value chain spanning miners, cell makers and automakers globally — a leveraged bet on EV demand and battery prices. Caught between weak EV-maker sentiment and the commodity downcycle. |
| GDX | VanEck Gold Miners ETF | theme | Gold Miners | -4.36% | -9.64% | 12.05% | NEM, AEM.TO, ABX.TO, WPM.TO, AU, FNV.TO, K.TO, GFI, PAAS.TO, NST.AX | -19.23% | 4.27% | The most liquid gold-miner benchmark; margins are geared to the gold price and energy costs, so margins compress fast when bullion falls. Still above its 150-day average, meaning the broader trend has not fully broken even as the shorter timeframe deteriorated. |
| GDXJ | VanEck Junior Gold Miners ETF | theme | Junior Gold Miners | -5.23% | -9.21% | 10.47% | EQX.TO, EVN.AX, AGI.TO, EDV.L, CDE, ELD.TO, PE&OLES.MX, HL, IMG.TO, AG.TO | -22.35% | 3.10% | Junior-miner exposure adds financing and development risk on top of metal-price risk — smaller producers are far more sensitive to capital-market access. Also still above its longer-term average, a sign of lingering trend support. |
| NLR | VanEck Uranium and Nuclear ETF | theme | Uranium & Nuclear | -3.23% | -8.76% | -18.16% | CEG, CCO.TO, PEG, FORTUM.HE, UEC, PDN.AX, NXE.TO, BWXT, LEU, DML.TO | -34.09% | -14.67% | Broader uranium-and-nuclear basket that includes utilities and reactor technology alongside miners, so it is less volatile than the pure miner funds but still tied to the nuclear-buildout narrative. Utility exposure links it to the rate-sensitive power complex now under pressure. |
| EPHE | iShares MSCI Philippines ETF | country | Philippines | -1.20% | -8.60% | -3.76% | ICT.XPHS, BDO.XPHS, SMPH.XPHS, SM.XPHS, MBT.XPHS, BPI.XPHS, TEL.XPHS, MER.XPHS, JFC.XPHS, AEV.XPHS | -18.68% | -6.83% | Single-country Philippines exposure concentrated in banks, property and consumer conglomerates. A domestic-demand and remittance story with meaningful currency and political risk, and one of the few country funds at the bottom of the ranking. |
| ITB | iShares U.S. Home Construction ETF | theme | Home Construction | -2.46% | -8.46% | -1.66% | DHI, PHM, LEN, NVR, SHW, TOL, HD, LOW, MAS, LII | -21.82% | -6.48% | Home-construction basket levered directly to mortgage rates and housing affordability; the rate backdrop has been the dominant driver of the group's recent slide. Builder balance sheets are generally healthy, so this is a demand-timing issue rather than a solvency one. |
| ITA | iShares U.S. Aerospace & Defense ETF | theme | Aerospace & Defense | -0.04% | -8.24% | -3.74% | GE, RTX, BA, GD, LMT, NOC, HWM, TDG, LHX, AXON | -15.52% | -7.61% | Aerospace and defense basket that has been sold alongside the broader industrials complex despite a robust multi-year order backdrop. The near-flat daily move on a broad down day suggests relative resilience even in a weak month. |
| SILJ | Amplify Junior Silver Miners ETF | theme | Junior Silver Miners | -5.44% | -8.15% | 5.34% | HL, CDE, AG.TO, WPM.TO, SSRM.TO, BOL.ST, EXK, AYA.TO, PPTA.TO, HYMC | -27.05% | -1.13% | Junior silver miners, a small-cap, high-beta play on silver with added operational and financing risk. Silver's pullback hit these names harder than the metal itself. |
| XHB | State Street SPDR S&P Homebuilders ETF | theme | Homebuilders | -2.33% | -8.14% | -1.85% | IBP, OC, ALLE, SKY, WSM, PHM, CSL, WMS, TOL, HD | -20.00% | -7.07% | Homebuilder basket with a different weighting than the iShares version, tilting toward building-products and retail distribution names. Same housing-cycle driver — the two funds are largely substitutes. |
