ETF Battles: QQQ vs. VGT - Which Technology ETF is Better for Growth Investors?

[@RB-je3yj]

SCHD and VGT is a bulletproof portfolio!

[@RB-je3yj]

Currently have 4500 SCHD 250 of VGT, 250 of VOO and 150 of VUG! I keep investing in these ETFs!

[@BillCagney]

That is honestly a KILLER portfolio with those ETFs, all the heavy hitters.

[@willstoll7302]

Dave is gonna go on a tangent with TQQQ

[@izik6894]

If you long, it is 100% VGT!

[@m.morininvestor9920]

Thx for everything we appreciate you a lot guys!!

[@etfguide]

M.Morin: Right back at you. It's viewers like you that make what we do worth the effort. 8-) Ron

[@Theorychad99]

TQQQ winner of everything

[@m.morininvestor9920]

Best Sortino? TQQQ Best sharpe? TQQQ Best Calmar ratio? TQQQ Best Treynor ratio? Best upside capture? TQQQ Best dog food? TQQQ What will you do this weekend? TQQQ 😅

[@Stoneface_]

True but very very risky

[@schoolruler2]

But would you hold it long term? Or go on and off depending on uptrends?

[@Stoneface_]

@@schoolruler2 swing trade it

[@niccccccs]

qqqm is now available, maybe we should compare to that in terms of cost

[@Frederick0220]

Dave is right. TQQQ and Bitcoin are the American Dream!

[@marymay8118]

My 2020 can end on a good note since I got to hear Dave pumping TQQQ. Thanks to the three of you for a fun year of ETF battles

[@etfguide]

Thank you Mary! We love you and wish you the absolute highest and most profitable results no matter what lies ahead. Good health to you and see you in '21! Ron

Happy holidays for you and for judges. Your etf guide is quality. Thanks for opening my perspective and information. Thanks so much more for the analysis. Merry Christmas for your team and my gratitude again.

Mil Gracias Dinorah! Nice to have you with us, Ron

Excellent show! Thanks for putting this together. Great education for all.

Our pleasure! Thank you Vickram for dropping by. Season 2 is coming! Best, Ron

[@daveschmarder-US1950]

Thanks so much for these videos, Ron & guests. My first ETF investment was in 2012. I still invest in mutual funds, but I like ETFs better for most cases. Good to see two put head to head. Have a better 2021 :)

Leverage ETF is always comes out of these battles LOL

[@KB-vv8gr]

I like tqqq and upro. But about qqq, Mike made a good point in one episode that many companies IPO on the New York stock exchange and so they will never appear on the qqq etfs.

[@etfguide]

Correct Kevin. Any non-Nasdaq listed tech stocks won't be included in QQQ. For example, QQQ doesn't offer exposure to Uber, Twitter or Spotify because these are all currently NYSE listed companies.

[@SanjitMandal]

Another one to compare is FTEC from Fidelity, just discovered it this past week.

[@Optimus-Prime-Rib]

Relatively high expense ratio compared to others

[@SanjitMandal]

@@Optimus-Prime-Rib 0.08%

[@SanjitMandal]

High expense or 0.08?

2021, let's see the following battles between VCR vs XLY; and WCLD vs CLOU

[@etfguide]

GOLDA: These look like some good matchups. Thank you for watching #ETFBattles

[@MrXrisd01]

This was good

[@atomatom6442]

TQQQ will be VERY VOLITILE, Can't imagine betting so big, if you put your life savings into it. WIN HUGE/ LOOSE HUGE. DEFINITELY: VTI!

[@qtcollect4608]

why the heck would you put your life savings on it if you know it's volatile? and you're not supposed to put your life savings in any investment anyway, not even VTI.

[@ACJ-x9x]

What about this ETF battle, ARKQ vs IDRV?

[@dlnarun]

what is your and your regular judges ETF portfolio for long term growth, can be an episode on its own subscriber will love.

[@sterlingcampbell2116]

TQQQ for long term? Seriously? VTI and chill

[@mitchgrimes3360]

great series thank you id like to see a competition between SCHD and VYM

Got it. Thank you Mitch, we've done several dividend ETF matchups and VYM was part of the mix. You can check them out here: kzbin.info/aero/PL2nQqIxm8RGD_gfMErNiiQYrOhIIMIEwu

[@tacticalveterinarian]

ARKK > QQQ haha!! at least I didn't say TQQQ is the best

[@LastAirElement]

Do you think ARKK or ARKG is good long-term investment? Let's say 20-30 years. I'm building my ROTH IRA Portfolio right now

[@tacticalveterinarian]

both are great, ARKK is more diverse since it's a mix of their top companies vs ARKG is more genomics/biotech focus

[@LastAirElement]

@@tacticalveterinarian cool, thank you 🙂👍

TQQQ in the long run will lose money, I’m confused to how y’all are so in love with it. It is not good for long term investing….

[@etfguide]

Up until now, the long-term performance of TQQQ has not been losing. Please re-check your stats.

[@KB-vv8gr]

A single stock that has performed better than QQQ long term all while paying a decent dividend has been Norfolk Southern Corporation (NSC) .

[@etfguide]

...but Kevin, you should've given us the heads up in 1997!

[@Zahar1389]

Is The winner qqq? I don't speak English)

[@etfguide]

This battle was a split decision.

[@jackcarraway4707]

VGT has a cheaper expense ratio and has won the returns battle for the past decade. Even has a slight edge in yield too. Here's my philosophy though. Both are good ETFs. If you pick either (or both!) and, most importantly, stay patient you are wiser with your money than most people.

[@etfguide]

Jack: We like your philosophy! Thanks for watching #ETFBattles and don't forget to subscribe. Ron

[@Yusheesan]

FTEC

[@allabouthegreen8586]

Be very careful with TQQQ. Do your research highly recommended not holding for LT unlike QQQ and VGT

Are there any REITS that invest in strip clubs?

No. But there is a VICE ETF, here's more: advisorshares.com/etfs/vice/

[@utah20gflyer76]

No talk about the risks of leveraged etfs? There is an ugly side to leverage that should be considered, especially since we are at all time highs.

[@etfguide]

EP: If you believe our judges have done a poor job of warning about the risks of leverage, then a) you haven't watched enough episodes, and/or b) you need to watch more closely. With all due respect, Ron #ETFBattles
