If you think the stock market has bottomed, there is a way to double your return of the rise in the market, without buying stocks on margin, and without buying call options. You can do that by buying Ultra ETF's.

An ETF or Exchange Traded Fund is structured to track various stock indices, and the Ultra ETFs are structured to provide double the performance of those indices. Most are traded on the American Stock Exchange. Depending on the ETF, it may even pay a yield. Here are several Ultra ETF's which will should rise by twice as much as the index that are tracking.
