Direxion Sparks Up Its Product Strategy With New CPO

Mo Sparks is bringing the heat to Direxion. The ETF provider, known for its high-octane leveraged and inverse funds, has named Sparks its new chief product officer, signaling its continued push for innovation in the trading world.

A Veteran ETF Strategist Joins The Team

Sparks, whose résumé reads like a who's who of ETF industry leadership, joins Direxion after spearheading the ETF business at Raymond James Investment Management.

Before that, he was key in expanding ETF offerings at the New York Stock Exchange, helping over 125 asset managers break into the space. His tenure at Vanguard further cemented his reputation as a product strategy expert.

Driving Innovation In ETF Products

"Mo is a visionary leader with a deep understanding of ETF innovation and global capital markets," said Douglas Yones, CEO of Direxion. "His ability to drive product expansion and investor education will be critical as we continue to offer cutting-edge solutions for traders and investors."

And Sparks is ready to light the fire.

"Direxion has pioneered leveraged and inverse ETFs, and I'm thrilled to join at a time when traders are increasingly turning to these tools to capture short-term trends," Sparks said.

With Direxion's lineup of well-known ETFs—including the Direxion Daily S&P 500 Bull 3X Shares SPXL, Direxion Daily S&P 500 Bear 3X Shares SPXS and Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bull 3X Shares SOXL – Sparks’ arrival signals a fresh wave of product development. Traders looking for new ways to amplify their strategies may want to keep an eye on what Direxion rolls out next.

For an industry that thrives on momentum, it looks like Direxion just found its next catalyst.
