ETF.net Research

FTECAFidelity MSCI Information Technology Index ETF

QQQMAInvesco NASDAQ 100 ETF

In short

FTEC Fidelity's tech sleeve runs 0.08% a year and holds about 300 names, tracking an MSCI index that reaches from mega-cap chipmakers down into small-cap software. Cheap beta on the whole US tech stack, not just the giants.

QQQM The Nasdaq-100 in a thriftier wrapper. Launched in 2020, QQQM holds the same index as Invesco's famous original and charges 0.15% a year instead of 0.18%, built for people who buy and sit rather than trade.

Stated mandate

FTEC Seeks to track, before fees and expenses, the performance of the MSCI USA IMI Information Technology Index.

QQQM The Fund seeks to track the performance of the NASDAQ-100 Index before fees and expenses by generally investing at least 90% of its assets in index securities.

Why people hold it

  • FTEC At 0.08%, it ties the cheapest fund in its broad-tech group and undercuts VGT's 0.09%, against a cohort median of 0.40%. On a sector sleeve, that gap compounds quietly.
  • The MSCI USA IMI benchmark covers large, mid and small cap US tech, so the roughly 300 holdings stretch past the mega-cap tier alone.msci.com
  • Trading since 2013 and now a multi-billion-dollar fund, it sits in the top quartile of its broad technology peer group.
  • QQQM Same NASDAQ-100 index as Invesco's original fund, for 0.15% instead of 0.18%. Identical mandate, smaller toll.invesco.com
  • Undercuts the typical Nasdaq-100 wrapper (cohort median 0.20%) and costs well under half the equal-weight version, QQQE, at 0.35%.
  • The mandate is literal: at least 90% of assets in index securities, tracking about 100 of the largest Nasdaq-listed non-financial companies.nasdaq.com
  • A multi-billion-dollar, actively traded fund and one of the stronger implementations in its Nasdaq-100 peer group.

Worth knowing

  • FTEC Membership follows GICS Information Technology, so several household-name tech businesses classified into other sectors never show up here.msci.com
  • One sector, one story: tech moves harder than the broad market in both directions, and roughly 300 names does not soften that.
  • Distributions arrive quarterly, and a growth-heavy sector index is not built around payouts.
  • QQQM The index excludes financial companies and requires a Nasdaq listing, so whole slices of the US market never show up here.nasdaq.com
  • Modified market-cap weighting means the biggest names carry the biggest weights, so a short list of mega-caps drives most of the ride.nasdaq.com
  • Distributions land quarterly, and the index selects on size, not dividends.nasdaq.com
