QQQ as of the recording of this video goes for $373.83 per share and is currently up 20.86% year-to-date.

What is really nice about QQQ in my opinion is that it’s passively managed since it tracks the NASDAQ-100 index. This gives it an expense ratio of only 0.20% which is quite low for a booming innovative ETF.

This means for every $10k invested, you’ll pay $20.

Now the Nasdaq 100 is a collection of 100 of NASDAQ’s largest non financial companies.

QQQ is definitely TECH heavy, and why I say that is because if you look at the holdings, you can dive into the variety of sectors invested:

48.74% of the ETF is invested in Information Technology with the largest two sitting as Apple and Microsoft as of the recording of this video.

You then have 19.23% in communication services such as Google, Facebook, Comcast, Netflix

17.08% of Consumer Discretionary like Amazon, Starbucks, Tesla

6.72% in Health Care with most going towards Moderna

And bringing up the total rear is Utilities at a whopping 0.86%.

SO if you want an ETF with a heavy lean towards Tech Stocks, QQQ could be your jam.

The whole world runs on tech. Everyone buys goods and services from the qqq companies. These are 100 of the biggest best run companies in the world. They have no debt tons of cash great products and operate in virtual monopolies. One can't put together a better portfolio. You don't invest in the past but in the future. 2021 is a lot different world then 1999.
No brainier portfolio buy and hold 50% SPY 50% QQQ. This portfolio, over time, will out perform most managed portfolios.

Hey man. Been a subscriber for a few months. Thanks for existing and providing your expertise. I acquired over 100 shares of QQQ June of last year @ $242 and am up over 50%. I have no plan of selling QQQ any time soon.

People forget that it is possible to lower your cost basis on ETFs. Therefore if a person bought the dips on QQQ, they would have recovered much sooner than 16 years.

[hrdiner]

You forget that people DCA into the fund so even if they bought at a high, their average cost would be much lower

all-time high – the highest level ever before achieved or attained

The term has nothing to do with future time.

"Don't be dumb, tab the thumb..."

Okay, but like, I'm feeling really stupid right now. What's this about?

"On the video."

Ahhh... makes WAY more sense now.

QQQ isn't bad per se, but there are other growth ETFs that have outperformed it on cheaper expense ratios like VGT.

Long term investment is better than just day trading

[papabear]

whatever you buy, just never sell it ever

QQQ strikes me as excellent for holding for growth when retirement is 15-20 years away, though since its a strong options platform, hanging onto QQQ as we approach retirement and switching our strategy on the ETF from growth to income by writing the wheel might be the way to go?

[ROMEKBNY]

If you only had a few hundred to spread around and add a few bucks every month, would you put $100 in qqq? Or is there a better/equal etf? Thanks. I’m ok with risk, just don’t want to put money into two etfs that are essentially the same in risk and returns/growth potential or basically have the same holdings.

[notarant]

So relatable man. That’s what I like about this channel.

Currently I have 50% in FOCPX & 50% in ARKK. Wha do you think about ARKK? Still a buy in the long term? Was thinking about selling my ARKK and buying QQQ but selling low and buying high isn’t a good investment habit.

[austindougal]

What about something like SCHG vs QQQ?

[geronimo]

When you said those investors were..."Dead!", i said "Sh*t"!!😆
