A percentile among the 292 buffer ETFs on stocks with a live outcome period. Today's position against one 20% fall; it ignores smaller falls, and stock buffers are never ranked against bond or commodity ones. All buffer ETFs ranked by it → How it is computed →

Both are Corgi funds, so the difference between them is the terms rather than the house.

Where each one stands today

AUGC resets first, on Jul 31, 2027, 292 days from now; CAUG runs to Jul 31, 2027, 292 days. A fall from here reaches AUGC’s buffer after 2.6% and CAUG’s after 2.6%. Both track SPY, so what separates them is where each is in its own period.

Where these figures came from

ETFIQ links to the documents behind every figure; a link is not an endorsement. A comparison is not a recommendation.

How this is computed

It is a place in a set, not a rating or a recommendation.

ETFIQ calculates every figure from each issuer’s published outcome-period terms. Buffer ETFs hold options on an index, not shares, so there is no holdings overlap to report.

Every figure is an ETFIQ calculation with distributions reinvested.
