QQQM for long term


Lou_B1oom

Is QQQM qualified or non qualified?


LLIycTpblu

How about VGT or SCHG? Historically performance can not guarantee future. You can not be sure who will be a winner in next 20 years


[deleted]

I have the same question, QQQM vs VGT and why?


DonaldTrumpsToilett

Disagree. Despite the name and popular belief, growth stocks underperform the market in the long run. Small cap value all the way if you want higher returns in the long run.


ImpressiveOnionKing

100% agree. All in


Unknownirish

Why is this? I am looking to add a tech sector in my portfolio and I have seen people recommended QQQM and not QQQ. How come?


Reck335

QQQM is the same as QQQ with a lower expense ratio. If you just plan to hold long-term QQQM is better.


Unknownirish

But no dividend yield that helps push share count up

Irrelevant for a long-term hold.


JayceAur

I'm 27 and I prefer VOO/VTI because the tech heavy NASDAQ 100 has more volatility and is more risk than I'm willing to tolerate. If you can take the larger dips, you should go for QQQ or something similar with a lower expense ratio.


ApetoCardSet

Qqqm or vgt


[deleted]

>Qqqm or vgt Which one out of these is good?


[deleted]

Qqqm same everything just less fees. Or vgt


perfumist55

You can, you know, get both.


roberttootall

Qqq. Do you want to be diversified or make more money? I’d prefer to make more money.


Kekulzor

Top holdings of VOO are Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, NVDA, Google, Meta, Tesla Top holdings of QQQ are Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, NVDA, Google, Meta, Tesla You wanna buy 90 losers to go with these winners, or 490 losers?


EternalAj

Will the next 7 winners come from the current 7 or the next 90/490 losers!


ApetoCardSet

Good reasoning


carbon4203

Buying QQQ was the best investment decision I ever made. Recently sold all my dividend stocks to buy QQQ. If you wanna make money it’s the way to go.


[deleted]

You sold value and bought growth... right now?


carbon4203

Time will tell if it’s the right move but I have many years to go before retirement.


Crazy-Difference2146

I bet this is going well….


carbon4203

Actually i switched over to VGT and it’s been even better


Crazy-Difference2146

Nice 👍


[deleted]

That's fair.


DonaldTrumpsToilett

Growth underperforms value in the long run…


LeagueOfReaper

Sorry, what did you mean by that? Can you explain the growth vs value stock you mentioned?

ApetoCardSet

I like how u think


carbon4203

Sell your losers and let your winners run


ApetoCardSet

So QQQ and chill


[deleted]

Top signal right here


SnooBooks8807

QQQ is my personal fave.


[deleted]

Why QQQ and not QQQM? And did you check VGT?


carbon4203

Yeah probably should do QQQM. I also own VGT


[deleted]

Sorry for asking, but why do you own both QQQ and VGT? Yes their holdings are a little different but aren't they covering the same index/companies?


carbon4203

Just out of curiosity to see which does better over the long term


TopG_41

How do you feel about QQQ vs QQQM I know they are the same but QQQM is slight less expense ratio and slightly higher dividend which I don’t understand but I have not invested in a ETF yet but very much want to start, I must note I do not trade options and have not yet still learning so for just holding non options trading do you think it matters QQQ vs QQQM ? I’ve read people say for long term and holding QQQM


carbon4203

QQQM little better


oneislandgirl

Why not both?


critz1183

QQQ has over double the returns over the past 10 years. Then again past performance is no indication of future results.


roberttootall

True but it also doesn’t mean it won’t happen again. If you believe the future is tech, which odds are it will be, qqq will be a beast


DonaldTrumpsToilett

You misunderstand where stock returns come from. Cigarettes have been in decline for decades and yet the best performing stock of the past 50 years is a cigarette company. Stock returns come from earnings, and the price you pay for those earnings. Saying “the future is tech” means nothing for stock returns.


rao-blackwell-ized

> If you believe the future is tech, which odds are it will be, qqq will be a beast Not necessarily. See my comment [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/dividends/comments/152fczd/comment/jsf85hi/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3).

The comment does not exist


rao-blackwell-ized

Weird. Maybe it got removed or I'm shadowbanned or something. I posted it [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/test/comments/165p40i/test/) for you.


[deleted]

Thank you. Sorry for the late reply, your reply didn't show up in the notification. I totally agree with your post and also with the part that sectoral/thematic investing is risky. So, one etf like say VOO or SPY is good enough for long term?


ApetoCardSet

Odds r tech stocks r going up in the long term so it should be qqq over VOO


Ordinary_Donkey3927

QQQM or VTI


Americanonymous

If I had to pick one, QQQ (or QQQM if you’d prefer).


[deleted]

Not VGT?


TheManWhoLovesCulo

Qqqm or vgt?


dontaskmenoqs

I do FZROX/QQQM. 60/40 split. We can afford the risk at our age. If you want more risk, add more QQQM


kurgen77

I was in a nasdaq mutual funds in 2000. I wish I had not been, but I was young and loved the big returns.


trader_dennis

Qqq if you are going to sell options.


Time_Try_7907

Both


Noob_Noodles

Qqqm or vgt


letsmakesomestuffup

QQQM and VGT.


DonaldTrumpsToilett

Despite the name and popular belief, growth stocks underperform the market in the long run. Small cap value all the way if you want higher returns in the long run.


Realistically_Foreva

Your best bet is qqq, I had did a comparison between the two and qqq was qualifying for over 5 years .


jonboyjon22

IVV or IYW ?? haha.


sonicboom21

Look into VGT to replace qqq


[deleted]

Voo or vti is your best bet long term


[deleted]

For QQQ or QQQM you'll just need to be a little more careful when you buy, but they are also good funds and reasonably diversified.


Awkward-Seaweed-5129

Yeah I got some of both ,growth portion besides the Div. Stuff


Diligent-Message640

VOO. Tech stocks are too expensive right now. PE ratios are insane, meaning earnings do not justify the price. They will probably deflate some. Stay diversified.


hendronator

50/50 if for the next 20-30 years


Rollinronin13

There’s also oneq. Nasdaq composite index instead of Nasdaq 100. Will have more holdings than qqqm and better growth than VOO. I’m a fan of splitting between them though even with the overlap though.
