This portfolio includes nearly all the securities that make up the Nasdaq-100 Index, maintaining similar weightings to those component securities.
 


Analysis of QQQ Stock: The invesco QQQ trust ETF


QQQ stock price analysis: The Nasdaq-100 Index includes the 100 largest non-financial companies listed on the Nasdaq stock exchange, making QQQ a popular choice for investors looking for exposure to growth-oriented, technology-focused stocks.

Since its inception in 1999, QQQ has established itself as one of the most liquid and widely traded ETFs available. It is commonly referred to as a "technology fund" due to its substantial allocation to major tech companies.

QQQ is not primarily intended as a dividend-paying ETF, but it does offer modest payouts to investors. The fund distributes dividends quarterly, based on the dividends received from the underlying stocks in the Nasdaq-100.

Dividend Yield: As of 2024, QQQ's dividend yield is approximately 0.8% to 1.0%, which is significantly lower than that of high-dividend ETFs or income-focused stocks.

Dividend Growth: Although dividend payments are not the primary focus, QQQ has seen some growth in its payouts over the years, reflecting the increasing profitability of its constituent companies.

Investors who prioritize income may find the dividend yield less appealing, but QQQ is more attractive to those focused on capital appreciation, driven by the growth potential of its holdings.
 


Portfolio Composition: The 10 Largest Holdings in QQQ


QQQ's holdings are predominantly concentrated in the technology sector, with additional allocations to industries such as healthcare and consumer discretionary. As of 2024, the ETF's ten largest holdings constitute a substantial portion of its overall value.

Top 10 Holdings (with Approximate Weightings):
1.       Apple Inc. (AAPL) – ~11.9%
2.       Microsoft Corp. (MSFT) – ~9.7%
3.       Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN) – ~5.6%
4.       NVIDIA Corp. (NVDA) – ~4.9%
5.       Tesla Inc. (TSLA) – ~4.2%
6.       Alphabet Inc. Class A (GOOGL) – ~3.8%
7.       Alphabet Inc. Class C (GOOG) – ~3.7%
8.       Meta Platforms Inc. (META) – ~3.5%
9.       Broadcom Inc. (AVGO) – ~3.2%
10.     PepsiCo Inc. (PEP) – ~2.5%

These companies dominate the fund due to QQQ's market-cap-weighted structure, where larger firms account for a greater share of the portfolio.
