PBQQ is a basket of defined outcome buffer ETFs. The fund consists of four equity buffer funds, each of which has exposure to QQQs capped gains and 12% buffered losses. The fund will invest equally in the underlying ETFs, holding one ETF with options expiring within three months, a second ETF with options expiring within six months, a third ETF with options expiring within nine months, and a fourth ETF with options expiring within 12 months. Unlike the underlying equity buffer funds that reset annually on a specific month, PBQQ refreshes approximately every 90 days, with one of the underlying ETFs resetting its cap and refreshing its buffer. This creates a continuous hedge for PBQQ regardless of each underlying ETFs outcome period. The approach reduces the timing risks associated with a monthly buffer strategy. Information on the fund exposure to the underlying ETFs and remaining cap and buffer are provided daily on the issuers website.
