Side by side
As of Nov 4, 2026. Source: ETFIQ.
These are two different products. XBJL is a floor fund, which caps how far a holder can fall. JULT 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
JULT resets first, on Jun 30, 2027, 238 days from now; XBJL runs to Jun 30, 2027, 238 days. JULT can still gain 13.6% before its cap, XBJL 9.9%. A fall from here reaches JULT’s buffer after 3.3% and XBJL’s after 3.5%. Both track SPY, so what separates them is where each is in its own period.

From its price on Nov 4, 2026, the fund can gain about 13.6% more before it reaches its cap.

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.
