As of Nov 3, 2026. Source: ETFIQ.

These are two different products. HJLY is a floor fund, which caps how far a holder can fall. CTJL is a buffer fund, which absorbs the first part of a fall and leaves everything below it with the holder.

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

Where each one stands today

CTJL resets first, on Jun 30, 2027, 239 days from now; HJLY runs to Jun 30, 2027, 239 days. A fall from here reaches CTJL’s buffer after 1.1% and HJLY’s after 1.1%. Both track SPY, so what separates them is where each is in its own period.

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.
