The Direxion Daily MSCI Brazil Bull 2X ETF (BRZU) seeks to provide 2x the daily performance of the MSCI Brazil Index, primarily investing in large- and mid-cap Brazilian equities. Its performance is heavily influenced by the Brazilian economy, commodity prices, and currency fluctuations, particularly the Brazilian real.
