These are two different products. FEBP is a floor fund, which caps how far a holder can fall. DDTF is a buffer fund, which absorbs the first part of a fall and leaves everything below it with the holder.
Where each one stands today
DDTF resets first, on Jan 31, 2027, 88 days from now; FEBP runs to Jan 31, 2027, 88 days. DDTF can still gain 3.7% before its cap, FEBP 4.4%. A fall from here reaches DDTF’s buffer after 8.5% and FEBP’s after 8.6%. 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.
