In short

UXJA No data

XTAP Most equity funds hand you the market's move. XTAP aims to triple the S&P 500's gain over an April-to-March year, up to a cap, while taking declines roughly one for one. No buffer, no daily reset: you trade a ceiling for acceleration.

Stated mandate

UXJA No data

XTAP The fund seeks three times the increase of its S&P 500-tracking Underlying ETF over the annual April 1–March 31 outcome period, subject to a cap. It bears Underlying ETF losses one-for-one and provides no buffer; the current period is April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2027, with a 19.47% pre-fee cap.

Why people hold it

UXJA No data

  • XTAP Triples the index's upside to a cap using options that reset each April 1. No daily reset, no compounding drift from holding through a choppy stretch, no borrowed money.innovatoretfs.com
  • At 0.79% it sits at the going rate for accelerated funds and undercuts First Trust's enhance-and-buffer siblings on the same index (XMAR, XJUN) at 0.85%.
  • Live since 2021 and built to roll: the fund resets at the end of each outcome period and can be held straight through, so there is no annual ticker swap.innovatoretfs.com
  • One of the stronger implementations in its accelerated S&P 500 peer group on cost and structure.

Worth knowing

UXJA No data

  • XTAP The ceiling is the whole bargain. Upside stops at the cap, which is reset for each new period, and mid-period buyers get whatever cap is left rather than the headline number.innovatoretfs.com
  • No buffer here. Index declines land on you roughly one for one, and the outcomes are designed around holding from the first day of the period to the last.innovatoretfs.com
  • A small, lightly traded fund with no distributions in the past year, so wider spreads and a total-return-only profile come with the package.
