Please note that added language to a Fund’s prospectus is in italics and deleted language appears struck through.

Comment 1: The Staff previously asked the GraniteShares 2x Long AMC Daily ETF and GraniteShares 2x Long GME Daily ETF to confirm that each intends to use a value-at-risk test “VAR” in complying with Rule 18f-4 under the Investment Company Act. The Staff also asks each Fund to supplementally the designated index that it would use as its designated reference portfolio for the relative VAR test. Please supplementally explain how each Fund will comply with the VAR test. please also confirm each Fund’s understanding that because the Fund seeks exposure to a single stock, the Staff would not object if the Fund complies with the relative VAR test by comparing the VAR of the Fund’s portfolio to the VAR of that single stock.
