About this ETF
The Innovator U.S. Equity Buffer ETF (BMAY) aims to replicate the performance of the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY), offering potential gains up to a specific, predefined maximum. Simultaneously, it provides a protective cushion for investors, shielding them from the initial 9% of any losses incurred over its designated outcome period. This ETF is suitable for long-term investment, as its features, including its upside potential and downside protection, refresh at the conclusion of each outcome period, which occurs approximately once per year.

Every dataset shows its own as-of date because holdings, assets and quotes update on different schedules.
