This Tech ETF Is Quietly Outperforming QQQ in 2026 -- Is There Still Time to Buy?
Yahoo Finance ·
A lot of investors use the Invesco QQQ ETF ( QQQ 1.73% ) as their proxy for tech exposure in their portfolios. In reality, it's only mostly a tech exchange-traded fund (ETF). Right now, approximately 67% of the Nasdaq-100 index, which QQQ tracks, is tech. It's got all of the big artificial intelligence (AI) names like Nvidia , Apple , and Microsoft at the top of the portfolio. But you may not realize that by owning QQQ, you also own Walmart , PepsiCo , Starbucks , and American Electric Power . It's the non-tech exposure in the Invesco QQQ ETF that has been a drag on returns. For a pure tech investment, I like the Vanguard Information Technology ETF ( VGT 2.13% ) . It's got more concentrated exposure, and its performance over the past decade has been top-notch.
