ETF.net Research

AUGPBPGIM S&P 500 Buffer 12 ETF - August

MAYZDTrueShares Structured Outcome (May) ETF

In short

AUGP No data

MAYZ A May-reset buffer fund with a twist: it aims to cushion the first 8% to 12% of S&P 500 price-index losses over each 12-month period, and its terms set no ceiling on the upside.

Stated mandate

AUGP No data

MAYZ The fund seeks to track the S&P 500 Price Return Index before fees while buffering the first 8% to 12% of index losses over a 12-month period. It uses an options-based buffer-protect strategy.

Why people hold it

AUGP No data

  • MAYZ The options-based buffer-protect design targets the first 8% to 12% of S&P 500 price-index losses over a 12-month stretch, with no stated upside cap in its buffer terms.
  • The outcome period resets each May 1 and runs a full year, so the calendar is known in advance rather than improvised.
  • Built as a 1940 Act ETF holding index options, not a bank-issued structured note, so the wrapper carries no single-issuer credit risk.
  • At 0.79%, the fee sits level with the best-known dated buffer funds, including Innovator's May-series fund (PMAY).

Worth knowing

AUGP No data

  • MAYZ The buffer is a range, not a fixed line, and it is measured across the whole outcome period. Entering mid-period changes both the remaining cushion and the return path.
  • Cheaper paths to buffered S&P 500 exposure exist, including laddered rivals PSFF (0.10%) and BUFP (0.50%).
  • A small fund that trades lightly, so bid-ask spreads can run wider than in the largest buffer ETFs.
