FT Vest Laddered Buffer ETF(AMEX:BUFR)

BUFR is a basket of defined outcome buffer ETFs. It consists of 12 equity buffer funds, each of which has exposure to SPYs capped gains and 10% buffered losses. The fund will invest equally in the underlying ETFs, holding one ETF with options expiring within one month, a second ETF with options expiring within two months, a third ETF with options expiring within three months, up until a 12th underlying ETF with options expiring within 12 months. Unlike the monthly equity buffers that reset annually on a specific month, BUFR refreshes monthly starting February, wherein one of the underlying ETFs resets its cap and refreshes its buffer. This creates a continuous hedge for BUFR regardless of each underlying ETFs outcome period. The approach reduces the timing risks associated with a monthly buffer strategy. Information on BUFRs exposure to the underlying ETFs, remaining cap and buffer is provided daily on the issuers website. Prior to May 10, 2024, the fund was called FT Vest Fund of Buffer ETFs.
