Description: BUFQ FT Cboe Vest Fund of January 20, 2026
The FT Cboe Vest Fund of Nasdaq-100 Buffer ETFs (BATS: BUFQ) offers investors exposure to large-cap U.S. equities via a laddered portfolio of four Cboe Vest Nasdaq-100® Buffer ETFs. Each underlying ETF holds FLEX options on the QQQ, a customizable, exchange-traded contract cleared by the OCC, which caps upside potential while providing a predefined buffer against downside losses. Because the fund’s assets are concentrated in a single sector index, it is classified as non-diversified.
Key data points to consider: BUFQ’s expense ratio is roughly 0.45% (typical for Cboe Vest buffer products), and as of the latest filing it manages about $200 million in assets. The buffer structure commonly offers, for example, a 10% upside cap with a 15% downside buffer over a 12-month horizon-meaning investors can retain up to 10% of gains while limiting losses to 15% before the buffer is breached. Performance is therefore tightly linked to the tech-heavy Nasdaq-100, making macro-economic drivers such as U.S. interest-rate policy, corporate earnings trends in the technology sector, and the overall health of the consumer-discretionary market especially material.
