DDTG vs HAUG: which one stands where?
As of Sep 19, 2026 DDTG can fall 2.0% before its buffer engages and HAUG 0.5%.
These are two different products. HAUG is a floor fund, which caps how far a holder can fall. DDTG 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
DDTG resets first, on Jul 31, 2027, 316 days from now; HAUG runs to Jul 31, 2027, 316 days. A fall from here reaches DDTG’s buffer after 2.0% and HAUG’s after 0.5%. Both track SPY, so what separates them is where each is in its own period.
Every figure is ETFIQ’s own, from the issuer’s published outcome-period terms. A buffer ETF holds FLEX options on its reference index rather than shares, so there is no holdings overlap between two of them to report.
