As of Nov 4, 2026. Source: ETFIQ.

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

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

Where each one stands today

FLJJ resets first, on Dec 31, 2026, 57 days from now; JANT runs to Dec 31, 2026, 57 days. FLJJ can still gain 4.4% before its cap, JANT 3.8%. A fall from here reaches FLJJ’s buffer after 7.4% and JANT’s after 10.4%. 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.
