- Description
- BUFX holds a laddered portfolio of defined outcome buffer ETFs. It consists of 12 equity buffer funds, each of which uses FLEX options to provide approximately twice of any positive price returns of SPY, up to a predetermined upside cap while preventing realization of the first 15% of its losses over a one-year period. Each underlying ETFs target outcome period, during which it resets its cap and refreshes its buffer, occurs every month on a rolling basis. This laddered approach creates a continuous hedge for BUFX regardless of each underlying ETF's outcome period, which in effect, reduces the timing risks associated with acquiring or disposing of any one underlying ETF at any one time. The fund generally rebalances its portfolio to equal weight every quarter. Information on BUFX's exposure to the underlying ETFs, remaining cap, and buffer are provided daily on the issuer's website.
