AUGPBPGIM S&P 500 Buffer 12 ETF - August

JULTBAllianzIM U.S. Equity Buffer10 Jul ETF

In short

AUGP No data

JULT A 10% cushion on an S&P 500 tracker, reset every July 1. JULT trades unlimited upside for a defined buffer across each 12-month window, and it has been running that trade since 2020 at a fee below the shallow-buffer norm.

Stated mandate

AUGP No data

JULT The Fund seeks to match the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust’s share-price returns at the end of the Outcome Period, subject to an upside Cap, while buffering the first 10% of losses in that underlying ETF.

Why people hold it

AUGP No data

  • JULT The deal is written down in advance: match the S&P 500 tracker's share-price return to June 30, absorb the first 10% of its losses, and give up upside above a cap.
  • 0.74% a year prices under the median fund in its shallow-buffer group and under 0.79% July rivals such as BJUL.
  • Live since June 2020, so it has already rolled through multiple full July-to-June outcome periods instead of asking you to trust a fresh launch.
  • Measured against dozens of dated shallow-buffer funds on the same reference, it lands among the stronger implementations in the group.

Worth knowing

AUGP No data

  • JULT The cap is what pays for the cushion. Upside is capped, and the new level is struck from option pricing each July 1, so it differs from period to period.
  • Protection stops at 10%: losses beyond that pass through. The reference is share-price return, so tracker dividends are not part of the payoff.
  • Trading is thin next to the largest buffer ETFs, so bid-ask spreads weigh more, and buying mid-period means different terms than the stated cap and buffer.
