Where each one stands today
JNEU resets first, on May 31, 2027, 250 days from now; JUNC runs to May 31, 2027, 255 days. A fall from here reaches JNEU’s buffer after 1.8% and JUNC’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.
