XIJNBFT Vest U.S. Equity Buffer & Premium Income ETF - June

In short

CPRY Small caps with a hard floor. CPRY uses options to target 100% of your starting value back over a one-year outcome period, before fees. The trade: a ceiling on the upside, reset each January.

XIJN No data

Stated mandate

CPRY The fund seeks point-to-point exposure to the positive price return of the Russell 2000 up to a defined cap, while providing 100% downside protection over the one-year outcome period before fees and expenses.

XIJN No data

Why people hold it

  • CPRY Full protection, not a partial buffer: the design targets 100% downside protection over the one-year outcome period, before fees and expenses.
  • The floor sits on small caps. The reference asset is the iShares Russell 2000 ETF (IWM), the choppier end of US equities.
  • At 0.69%, it undercuts the 0.89% median fee among protection funds, and it sits among the strongest implementations in that peer group.
  • Part of a dated series: siblings start their outcome periods in July (CPRJ) and October (CPRO), so January is not the only entry point.

XIJN No data

Worth knowing

  • CPRY Protection is point to point and before the 0.69% fee. Buy mid-period or sell early and you get whatever the options package is worth that day.
  • Upside stops at a cap that resets with each new January outcome period. Anything the Russell 2000 gains above it stays with the index.
  • A small fund that trades thinly, so spreads can run wider than on big index ETFs.
