Side by side
As of Nov 4, 2026. Source: ETFIQ.
CPSY is already at its cap, so more rise in the index adds nothing to it before the period ends.
Where each one stands today
CPSY resets first, on Dec 31, 2026, 57 days from now; FLJJ runs to Dec 31, 2026, 57 days. A fall from here reaches CPSY’s buffer after 5.0% and FLJJ’s after 7.4%. Both track SPY, so what separates them is where each is in its own period.
CPSY
SPY had already risen past this fund's cap of +6.4% for the period on Nov 4, 2026, so in index terms there is no more upside to collect.

Protection left, in index points: 100.0% of the 100.0% buffer still sits below today's SPY level. 57 days remained on Nov 4, 2026. On Dec 31, 2026 the period ends and a new cap is set.

How this is computed
ETFIQ calculates every number 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 number is an ETFIQ calculation with distributions reinvested.
