Description: FOCT Exchange-Traded Fund VIII January 21, 2026

FOCT is a U.S.-based “Defined Outcome” ETF that allocates essentially all of its capital to customized FLEX options tied to the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY). These contracts let the manager set specific strike prices, option styles, and expirations, creating a built-in buffer that caps upside while limiting downside under normal market conditions.

Key metrics (as of the latest filing) include an expense ratio of roughly 0.45%, total assets of about $150 million, and a 30-day implied volatility (VIX) of ~18%, which influences the cost and effectiveness of the buffer structure. Because the fund is non-diversified, its performance is highly correlated (≈ 0.95) with the underlying S&P 500 index.

Macro-driven factors that matter most are U.S. interest-rate expectations and earnings growth in the S&P 500’s largest sectors-technology, health care, and consumer discretionary. A tightening Fed policy tends to raise option premiums, potentially enhancing the buffer’s protection, while a slowdown in earnings could erode the upside capture.
