Sometimes it feels like it's Nvidia's world, and we are all just living in it. As we brace for the firm's latest earnings report coming Wednesday, we could say that Nvidia (NVDA) earnings — and more importantly, its forward guidance — have become much more than a par-for-the-course quarterly disclosure.

Is the Explosion of Single-Stock ETFs an Opportunity or a Danger?

The Magnificent 7 account for roughly a third of the entire S&P 500, so it's understandable that some investors might consider focusing an outsized portion of their portfolio on either one of these stocks or a similarly-sized titan of the market.

NVDL: Better Safe Than Sorry

GraniteShares 2x Long NVDA Daily ETF (NVDL) offers 2x daily exposure to Nvidia but carries extreme risk and volatility.
