FT Vest Laddered Max Buffer ETF (BUFH)

Defined Outcome | Exchange Traded Fund | Cboe US
21.15 USD +0.03 (0.163%) ⇧ (April 17, 2026, 2:08 p.m. EDT)

Short-term: ★★★☆☆ | Long-term: ★★★☆☆ | Dividends: ☆☆☆☆☆
Hot Take | April 18, 2026, 11:57 p.m. EDT

Trapped to the upside: BUFH is a Tail Beta ETF with flat 14-day price action, hovering near its 52-week high, and carries no dividend yield; despite recent product expansion news, the static price forecast (0.15% over 45 days) and structural high-volume liquidity gaps suggest neutral holding status only.
