What QQQM actually is

QQQM tracks the Nasdaq-100 Index, the same index as the famous QQQ, but is positioned for buy-and-hold investors rather than active traders.

What is inside

The 100 largest non-financial companies on the Nasdaq, with heavy weights in technology and communication services such as Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia, Amazon and Alphabet.

Distributions

QQQM pays a small quarterly dividend. These companies mostly prefer reinvesting and buybacks, so income is low.

What to keep in mind

  • Concentration. A few giants lead.
  • Valuation risk. Tech can swing sharply.
  • Overlap. Holds the same stocks as QQQ and an S&P 500 fund.

Quick take

QQQM is the long-term version of QQQ. Compare QQQ vs VOO to see how Nasdaq-100 differs from the S&P 500.
