FMAY vs HJUN: which one stands where?
As of Sep 21, 2026 FMAY can fall 4.7% before its buffer engages and HJUN 0.4%, and FMAY resets 13 days sooner.
These are two different products. HJUN is a floor fund, which caps how far a holder can fall. FMAY 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
FMAY resets first, on May 21, 2027, 242 days from now; HJUN runs to May 31, 2027, 255 days. A fall from here reaches FMAY’s buffer after 4.7% and HJUN’s after 0.4%. 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.
