### Questions people ask

Why is the cap left smaller than the cap? The cap is set at reset. If the fund has risen since, that gain has already been used, so a buyer today gets what is left. What does fall before buffer mean? How far the fund’s price can drop from here before the buffer starts to absorb losses, as the issuer publishes it. Does the date change the numbers? Only the days left. Prices are the latest close; ETFIQ does not forecast.
