Side by side
As of Nov 4, 2026. Source: ETFIQ.
These are two different products. PMMY is a floor fund, which caps how far a holder can fall. MAYT 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
MAYT resets first, on Apr 30, 2027, 177 days from now; PMMY runs to Apr 30, 2027, 177 days. MAYT can still gain 9.3% before its cap, PMMY 3.9%. A fall from here reaches MAYT’s buffer after 6.2% and PMMY’s after 2.9%. 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.
