Wall Street was upbeat last week.

ETFs in Focus

Iren-Heavy ETFs

Tradr 2X Long IREN Daily ETF (IREX - Free Report) – Up 56.1%

Leverage Shares 2X Long IREN Daily ETF IREG – Up 55.5%

IREN Limited (IREN - Free Report) shares surged 25.4% over the past week (as of Sept. 3, 2026).

Management noted that customer prepayments can cover 45–55% of GPU capex and lenders can fund most of the rest. That directly addressed investor fears of large ATM/convertible raises after the Q4 print, per 247 Wall Street.

IREN also announced last week a senior secured financing package to fund GPU purchases for its AI cloud business. The market viewed this as validation that its $25–30 billion FY27 capex plan can be funded largely via debt/prepayments rather than heavy equity dilution.

Bloom Energy-Heavy ETFs

Corgi BE 2x Daily ETF (BEC - Free Report) – Up 42.1%

Tradr 2X Long BE Daily ETF (BEX - Free Report) – Up 41.7%

Bloom Energy (BE - Free Report) shares surged 21% over the past week (as of Sept. 3, 2026).

Bloom Energy will join the S&P 500 before the market opens on September 21, 2026, following an announcement by S&P Dow Jones Indices. In addition to this upbeat news, strong fundamentals tied to AI data-center power demand are in place.

Eos Energy-Heavy ETFs

Corgi EOSE 2x Daily ETF EO – Up 36.6%

Eos Energy Enterprises Inc (EOSE - Free Report) shares surged 20.2% over the past week (Sept. 3, 2026).

Eos, MN8 Energy, and Google announced a $350 million integrated solar plus storage development in Kanawha County, WV, designed to deliver 24/7 clean power to Google’s regional data centers via the PJM grid. The project includes 10 MW/100 MWh of Eos’ Z3 zinc based long duration storage, with commercial operations ramping up between 2028–2030, per Investors Hub, as mentioned on Yahoo Finance.

Hut 8-Heavy ETFs

Leverage Shares 2X Long HUT Daily ETF HUTG – Up 35.2%

Hut 8 Corp. (HUT - Free Report) shares added 17.3% over the past week (as of Sept. 3, 2026).

Hut 8 is developing a data center in Nueces County, Texas, that will be leased by NVIDIA as part of a new $35 billion cloud-computing deal between Anthropic and NVIDIA-backed Lambda, according to a new report from the WSJ, as mentioned on Yahoo Finance.

SanDisk-Heavy ETFs

T-REX 2X Long SNDK Daily Target ETF SNDU – Up 35.2%

SanDisk joined the Nasdaq-100 Index in April 2026 and is scheduled to join the S&P 100 Index on September 21, 2026. SanDisk was added to the MSCI USA Standard / MSCI Global Indexes, with the change effective after the August 31 close. Sector-wide supply tightness also added to the rally.
