Our read on APRT
BA 10% cushion on the S&P 500's price return, reset every April 1. APRT uses FLEX options to absorb the first slice of a decline across its 12-month period, and charges less than the typical buffer fund to do it.
The Fund seeks to provide shareholders holding for the full Outcome Period with protection against the first 10% of losses in the S&P 500 Price Index. It pursues this strategy primarily through FLEX Options referencing that index.
Why people hold it
- The contract is plain: FLEX options on the S&P 500 Price Index, structured to absorb the first 10% of losses over the April 1 to March 31 outcome period.
- A 0.74% fee undercuts the median in its shallow-buffer peer group, unusual in a corner of the market where the options plumbing normally costs more.
- Running since 2020, so it has cycled through multiple complete buffer periods, including live equity drawdowns, rather than arriving as an untested launch.
- Sits in the top quartile of its shallow-buffer cohort, one of the stronger builds among 9% to 12% S&P 500 buffer funds.
Worth knowing
- The reference is the S&P 500 Price Index, so dividends sit outside the math entirely. Both the buffer and the cap track price moves only.
- The stated terms apply to holders across the full April-to-March period. Buy mid-period and your actual cushion and remaining upside differ from the headline.
- A small fund that trades thinly, so spreads can run wider than the largest buffer names. It has also made no distributions over the past year.
