Press Release
Direxion Launches META Single Stock Leveraged and Inverse ETFs
–News Direct–
Following their recent success with Single Stock Leveraged and Inverse ETFs, Direxion, a leading provider of tradeable and thematic ETFs, today announced the launch of an additional pair, which allow active traders to obtain magnified, or inverse, exposure to the daily performance of the common stock of Meta Platforms, Inc. through either the Direxion Daily META Bull 2X Shares (Ticker: METU) or Direxion Daily META Bear 1X Shares (Ticker: METD).
Although Meta has been around for over two decades, the company continues to evolve and innovate, cementing itself as a lasting leader in the tech space, said Direxion Managing Director, Edward Egilinsky. But thats not without periods of short-term ebbs and flows, of which traders seek to take advantage.
Offering ground-breaking products built for active traders, Direxions pairs of Single Stock Leveraged and Inverse ETFs are meant to be used for short-term trading purposes. These ETFs should not be viewed as buy and hold investments, but rather trading tools for traders with a high-risk tolerance. In addition, unlike traditional ETFs, or even other levered and/or inverse ETFs, these ETFs track the price of a single stock rather than an index, eliminating the benefits of diversification.
"With the launch of METU and METD, Direxion is the only provider to offer Single Stock ETF pairs for all of the Magnificent Seven, Egilinsky added. Traders may respond tactically to headline news, earnings reports, and market sentiment for the Magnificent Seven on an individual basis via our Single Stock suite, or collectively with our recently launched QQQU and QQQD, which provide exposure to a concentrated basket of the seven companies.
All Direxion leveraged and inverse ETFs are intended only for investors with an in-depth understanding of the risks associated with seeking leveraged investment results, and who plan to actively monitor and manage their positions. There is no guarantee these ETFs will meet their objective. Please visit the Direxion Leveraged and Inverse ETF Education Center, where you will find educational brochures, videos, and a self-paced online course to help you understand if leveraged ETFs are right for you.

There is no guarantee that the Funds will achieve their investment objectives.
For more information on all Direxion Shares ETFs, go to www.direxion.com, or call us at 866.301.9214.
An investor should carefully consider a Funds investment objective, risks, charges, and expenses before investing. A Funds prospectus and summary prospectus contain this and other information about the Direxion Shares. To obtain a prospectus and summary prospectus call 866-476-7523 or visit our website at direxion.com. A Funds prospectus and summary prospectus should be read carefully before investing.
Investing in the funds involves a high degree of risk. Unlike traditional ETFs, or even other leveraged and/or inverse ETFs, these leveraged and/or inverse single stock ETFs track the price of a single stock rather than an index, eliminating the benefits of diversification. Leveraged and inverse ETFs pursue daily leveraged investment objectives, which means they are riskier than alternatives which do not use leverage. They seek daily goals and should not be expected to track the underlying stocks performance over periods longer than one day. They are not suitable for all investors and should be utilized only by investors who understand leverage risk and who actively manage their investments. The Funds will lose money if the underlying stocks performance is flat, and it is possible that the Bull Fund will lose money even if the underlying stocks performance increases, and the Bear Fund will lose money even if the underlying stocks performance decreases, over a period longer than a single day. An investor could lose the full principal value of his or her investment in a single day. Investing in the Funds is not the same as investing directly in META.
Technology Sector Risk The market prices of technology related securities tend to exhibit a greater degree of market risk and sharp price fluctuations than other types of securities. These securities may fall in and out of favor with investors rapidly, which may cause sudden selling and dramatically lower market prices. Technology securities may be affected by intense competition, obsolescence of existing technology, general economic conditions and government regulation and may have limited product lines, markets, financial resources, or personnel.
Meta Platforms, Inc. Investing Risk Meta Platforms, Inc. is subject to a number of risks related to: its product offerings; business operations and financial results; government regulation and enforcement; the ability to collect and use consumer data; data, security and intellectual property; and the dual class structure of the companys common stock, which limits the ability of shareholders to influence corporate matters.
Direxion Shares Risks An investment in each Fund involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. Each Fund is non-diversified and includes risks associated with a Fund concentrating its investments in a particular security, industry, sector, or geographic region which can result in increased volatility. A Fund's investments in derivatives such as futures contracts and swaps may pose risks in addition to, and greater than, those associated with directly investing in securities or other investments, including imperfect correlations with underlying investments or the Fund's other portfolio holdings, higher price volatility and lack of availability. As a result, the value of an investment in a Fund may change quickly and without warning. Risks of the Funds include Effects of Compounding and Market Volatility Risk, Derivatives Risk, Counterparty Risk, Rebalancing Risk, Intra-Day Investment Risk, Market Risk, Industry Concentration Risk, Cash Transaction Risk, Indirect Investment Risk, and risks specific to the technology sector and internet company industry. Additional risks include, for the Direxion Daily META Bull 2X Shares, Leverage Risk and Daily Correlation Risk, and for the Direxion Daily META Bear 1X Shares, Shorting or Inverse Risk as well as Daily Inverse Correlation Risk. Please see the summary and full prospectuses for a more complete description of these and other risks of the Funds.

ForumPay Expands Payment Infrastructure with New Card and Bank Transfer Acceptance Solution
Milton, Georgia, August 11th, 2026, Chainwire
Businesses are increasingly looking for ways to offer more payment options without adding operational complexity. ForumPay, a crypto payment infrastructure company, enables merchants to accept crypto payments across online, in-store, and in-app channels, with instant conversion and next-day settlement.
ForumPay has recently announced a new payment flow that it says could meaningfully alter how payments are processed. Customers can now initiate purchases using any Visa or Mastercard and bank transfers in selected markets, with funds routed automatically through ForumPay’s infrastructure. Merchants can now offer card and bank payments without registering as a card acceptance businesses, sidestepping chargeback liability and PCI-DSS compliance costs while still receiving precisely the amount invoiced.
This latest ForumPay release represents one of the more ambitious developments yet to bridge the gap between traditional payment rails and crypto infrastructure.
Built for Modern Payment Acceptance
Businesses increasingly want to offer customers greater flexibility at checkout, but additional payment methods tend to bring additional operational and cost burdens. Card acceptance, in particular, can introduce chargeback exposure, compliance requirements, fraud management responsibilities, and more complex settlement processes, challenges that only grow more acute for organizations operating across multiple markets.
ForumPay’s innovative new payment flow is designed to solve these issues. Customers can initiate payments using any Visa, Mastercard, or bank transfer in selected markets, with those funds automatically used to purchase crypto and processed through ForumPay’s existing crypto payment infrastructure, with all of the inherent features and benefits, and converted and settled as per the preferences a merchant has already established on their account. Merchants will receive exactly the amount invoiced. For example, if a customer is billed $100, then $100 is what arrives in the merchant’s preferred bank account.
Critically, ForumPay will pass the additional card and bank transfer costs directly to the payer, meaning merchants pay only their usual crypto acceptance fees that would apply to any transaction processed through the platform. The approach allows businesses to expand the choice of available payment methods at checkout without taking on the compliance architecture, risks and costs that card acceptance would ordinarily require.
More Payment Options, the Same Operational Footprint
Businesses increasingly want to offer customers greater flexibility at checkout, but incorporating additional payment methods tend to bring with it additional operational burdens. Card acceptance, in particular, can introduce chargeback exposure, compliance requirements, fraud management responsibilities, and more complex settlement processes, challenges that only grow more acute for organizations operating across multiple markets.
ForumPay’s new payment flow is being designed to address this friction. Customers will be able to initiate payments using any Visa, Mastercard, or bank transfer in selected markets. Those funds are then automatically used to purchase digital assets and processed through ForumPay’s existing infrastructure, allowing merchants to continue receiving funds according to their established settlement preferences without having to overhaul their operations to accommodate the new options in the process. The approach, ForumPay says, allows businesses to expand what they can offer at checkout without taking on the compliance architecture that card acceptance would ordinarily require.
About ForumPay
ForumPay is a complete cryptocurrency-to-fiat payment technology firm; its core processing technology helps businesses attract new customers, optimize customers’ ability to spend, and increase revenue. ForumPay’s wallet-agnostic solution enables crypto consumers to spend their preferred cryptocurrency, from any wallet for everyday goods and services to luxury goods, automobiles, real estate, and private jets. ForumPay eliminates merchant exposure or risk by processing transactions with instant crypto-to-cash conversion. ForumPay merchants receive payments in the currency of their choice directly into their bank account. The transactional experience is similar to accepting other popular payment methods, including cash, credit cards, and bank transfers, but simpler, faster, and more secure.

Counter-UAS Market Set to Triple by 2030 as Defense Companies Position for Growth
Naples, FL, USA, August 11th, 2026, FinanceWire
Drones have become a growing security problem, and the market to stop them is expanding just as quickly. MarketsandMarkets estimates the global counter-unmanned aircraft systems market will grow from $6.64 billion in 2025 to $20.31 billion by 2030, representing a 25.1 percent compound annual growth rate. Within that forecast, AI-powered counter-UAS is the fastest-growing technology layer, projected to expand from $0.9 billion in 2025 to $6.2 billion by 2030. As governments and critical infrastructure operators look for ways to detect, track, and defeat increasingly sophisticated drone threats, defense companies are racing to build the next generation of counter-UAS technology. Several public companies are already staking positions in counter-UAS, approaching the opportunity from different angles.
Change Agents Corp. (Nasdaq: CHGA) has joined the Institute for Defense and Government Advancement, or IDGA, and will take part in the organization’s Counter UAS Summit. Now in its eighth year, the summit runs August 25 to 26 at the MGM National Harbor in Maryland under the chairmanship of retired General Glen VanHerck, former commander of North American Aerospace Defense Command and U.S. Northern Command. IDGA expects more than 500 senior decision-makers, acquisition leaders, and program managers from the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Customs and Border Protection, and law enforcement, placing Change Agents in direct contact with the buyers and technology developers shaping counter-drone procurement.
The summit role builds on the company’s August 4 launch of Autonomous Air Defense LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary formed to identify, evaluate, acquire, and develop autonomous air defense and counter-UAS technologies. That announcement also brought retired Major General Malcolm Frost onto the advisory boards of both Change Agents and the new subsidiary. Frost served 31 years in the U.S. Army, retiring as a two-star general after commanding the 2nd Stryker Brigade Combat Team of the 25th Infantry Division and serving as Deputy Commanding General of the 82nd Airborne Division. He is a West Point and Army War College graduate who deployed to Bosnia, Iraq, and Afghanistan, and he advises public and private companies across the defense and technology sectors.
Change Agents built its business in agentic AI software, pairing an AI search optimization platform called Beacon with an autonomous content creation platform called Catch-Up, both sold on a subscription model. Management frames the counter-drone move as an outgrowth of that work rather than a break from it. Director Michael Mathews called the formation of Autonomous Air Defense LLC “a natural extension of the company’s broader artificial intelligence strategy” and tied the IDGA engagement to positioning the company to “capitalize on the significant long-term opportunities within the global counter-UAS market. ” Frost, in joining, pointed to the convergence of artificial intelligence, autonomous systems, and next-generation counter-drone technology as one of the most important developments in modern defense.
That convergence is the opening Change Agents intends to pursue, and the sequence so far has been deliberate. In roughly a week the company has stood up a dedicated subsidiary, added a decorated defense advisor, and secured a place at the sector’s principal U.S. gathering. The company has said Autonomous Air Defense is evaluating multiple acquisition and partnership opportunities involving AI-enabled counter-drone technologies serving defense, homeland security, and critical infrastructure customers, and that it expects to provide further updates as developments occur.
Change Agents is entering a field already populated by well-funded public companies attacking the drone problem from different angles.
Ondas Inc. (Nasdaq: ONDS) is the closest analog to what Change Agents describes. Its Iron Drone Raider is an autonomous net-based interceptor built to neutralize hostile drones without jamming, paired with its Sentrycs platform for cyber and radio-frequency detection and identification, together mirroring the detect, identify, track, and intercept sequence Change Agents has said it wants to reach. Ondas posted first-quarter 2026 revenue of $50.1 million against a pro forma backlog of $457 million and in July raised its full-year 2026 revenue target to at least $525 million. In February its Airobotics subsidiary secured a multi-million-dollar order from a European customer in a NATO country following an Iron Drone Raider deployment at a major international airport, one of the few operational uses of an interceptor drone in a live civil-aviation setting.
AeroVironment (Nasdaq: AVAV) approaches the market as an established contractor. Its acquisition of BlueHalo, valued at roughly $4.1 billion and completed in May 2025, added directed energy, electronic warfare, and counter-UAS capabilities to a portfolio already known for the Switchblade family of loitering munitions. BlueHalo had delivered its 1,000th Titan radio-frequency counter-UAS system before the deal closed and was the first to operationally field a laser weapon system with LOCUST. The combination turned a former drone specialist into a diversified defense technology platform spanning radio-frequency, directed energy, and kinetic defeat, and it marks the scaled version of the category Change Agents is entering.
Kratos Defense & Security Solutions (Nasdaq: KTOS) anchors the autonomous systems end of the field. Best known for the jet-powered XQ-58A Valkyrie, Kratos reported second-quarter 2026 revenue of $458.8 million, up 30.5 percent year over year and 19.1 percent organically, and raised full-year 2026 guidance to a range of $1.75 billion to $1.81 billion. Total backlog stood at $2.084 billion against a bid pipeline of $15.0 billion, a measure of how much defense money is now moving through unmanned and autonomous programs, and of the budgets, Change Agents is positioning to reach.
Ondas, AeroVironment, and Kratos map the opportunity from interceptor specialist to diversified prime, and they mark out the market Change Agents Corp. (Nasdaq: CHGA) has chosen to enter. What CHGA has established is a subsidiary, an advisor with two-star command experience, and access to the procurement community setting counter-drone requirements. What remains prospective is the technology itself, and the company has said it expects to report further developments as it works through the acquisition and partnership opportunities in front of it.
