Our read on QJUN

ETF.net Research

COne of four First Trust Nasdaq-100 buffer funds, each keyed to a different quarter. QJUN's clock runs June to June: the first 10% of a QQQ decline is absorbed, and upside stops at a cap that resets every June.

Stated mandate

The Fund seeks to match the price return of the Invesco QQQ Trust, Series 1 up to a 24.97% upside cap while protecting against the first 10% of losses during the June 22, 2026–June 17, 2027 outcome period.

Why people hold it

  1. 01The terms are a contract, not a hope: a 10% buffer against QQQ losses and a stated cap, both fixed for a June-to-June outcome period, so the shape of the trade is known up front.ftportfolios.com
  2. 02Siblings QMAR, QSPT and QDEC run the same design on different quarters, so the strategy can be laddered across start dates instead of hinging on one June entry point.
  3. 03Running since 2021 with a few hundred million in assets and regular daily volume, it is an established name in a category full of thinly used launches.

Worth knowing

  1. 01At 0.90% it sits above the typical Nasdaq-100 buffer fund near 0.79%, and cheaper takes exist: QBUF at 0.79%, PQAP at 0.50%, QTR at 0.25%.
  2. 02The reference is QQQ's price return, so Nasdaq-100 dividends are outside the deal.
  3. 03Buying mid-period is a different trade: buffer left and room to the cap depend on where QQQ has moved since the June reset, not on the headline terms.ftportfolios.com
