IQQAiShares Nasdaq 100 ETF

QQQADProShares Nasdaq-100 Dorsey Wright Momentum ETF

In short

IQQ No data

QQQA Most Nasdaq-100 funds hand you the whole index. QQQA runs Dorsey Wright's relative-strength screen across it and holds the names already leading, a momentum tilt on the Nasdaq's own roster.

Stated mandate

IQQ No data

QQQA The Fund seeks investment results that, before fees and expenses, track the Nasdaq-100 Dorsey Wright Momentum Index.

Why people hold it

IQQ No data

  • QQQA It isn't another Nasdaq-100 clone. It tracks the Nasdaq-100 Dorsey Wright Momentum Index, a relative-strength screen that favors the names showing the strongest price trend.proshares.com
  • The factor is on the label, not buried in the fine print: momentum, applied inside one well-defined universe, so you always know what the screen is doing.proshares.com
  • Ordinary plumbing under the strategy: a 1940 Act ETF from ProShares, launched in 2021, paying distributions quarterly.

Worth knowing

IQQ No data

  • QQQA At 0.58% a year it costs about triple the typical Nasdaq-100 fund; QQQM charges 0.15% and QQQ 0.18%. The screen carries that cost gap.
  • It trades thinly next to the giants of its category, so spreads can be wider and order size matters more.
  • Holding the Nasdaq-100's momentum leaders rather than the full index means stretches where it behaves quite differently from the plain benchmark, in either direction.
