m+ DynaBuffer ETF is an actively managed fund that seeks exposure to large-cap U.S. equities through unfunded total return swaps linked to the HSBC DynaBuffer US Large Cap Index, which uses a rolling ladder of synthetic buffer notes on the S&P 500 to deliver downside protection with capped upside on a continuously resetting schedule. The fund carries an expense ratio of 0.70% and operates with a modest asset base. It may appeal to investors seeking equity exposure with structured downside buffers, though the complexity of the strategy and dynamic nature of the buffer resets distinguish it from traditional large-cap equity funds.

How Dividend Vision calculates returns

Total return uses split-adjusted close with distributions reinvested on the ex-dividend date (a modeling convention, not the cash-settlement date) from the first stored bar on or after inception through the latest bar, compared with the same window on the benchmark. That is the security's total return, not your personal gain/loss.
