Description: GMAR Exchange-Traded Fund VIII December 28, 2025

GMAR is a U.S.-based “Defined Outcome” ETF that seeks to deliver a moderate buffer against downside risk by investing almost entirely in FLEX Options linked to the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY). Because the fund’s strategy hinges on option contracts rather than direct equity holdings, it is classified as non-diversified and its performance will track the S&P 500’s price movements within the predefined buffer parameters.

Key metrics as of the latest filing show an expense ratio of 0.45%, assets under management of roughly $150 million, and a buffer target of 12% with a March 2025 termination date. The fund’s return profile is especially sensitive to equity market volatility (VIX) and the Fed’s interest-rate policy, which influence option premiums and the cost of establishing the buffer.

For a deeper quantitative comparison of GMAR’s buffer structure versus similar outcome-based ETFs, ValueRay’s analytics platform provides a useful side-by-side view.
