This fund multiplies its index's move each day and resets that multiple daily. Because daily returns compound, its long-run return can differ from the headline multiple.

Our read on QQDN

ETF.net Research

CMost Nasdaq bear funds short all 100 names. QQDN aims for -2x the daily move of the Nasdaq-100's mega-cap core only, tracking an index whose membership refreshes as the giants reshuffle instead of freezing a fixed basket.

Stated mandate

QQDN seeks daily results equal to two times the inverse of the Nasdaq-100 Mega Index's daily performance, before fees and expenses.

Why people hold it

  1. 01Targets the Nasdaq-100's mega-cap core instead of all 100 names, concentrating the short where the parent index's own weight already sits.proshares.com
  2. 02The index follows the mega-cap pecking order as it shifts, so the exposure isn't pinned to a hand-picked, fixed list of yesterday's leaders.proshares.com
  3. 03Runs 1.12% a year, below the median for leveraged and inverse funds, and getting short this way needs no margin account or stock borrow.

Worth knowing

  1. 01The -2x target resets each day. Hold longer and compounding drives the math, so results can diverge from twice the index's inverse move over that stretch.proshares.com
  2. 02Concentration cuts both ways: a handful of mega-caps drive the index, and one company's news reaches you doubled and flipped.proshares.com
  3. 03Launched in 2025 and lightly traded next to long-standing Nasdaq shorts like PSQ, which can mean wider bid-ask spreads.

QQDN Risk

This fund targets a multiple of the daily move of its index and resets daily. Hold it longer than one reset and compounding makes the return diverge from that target. In choppy markets it can lose value even when the index ends flat.
