Amplify AI Powered Equity ETF underperforms S&P 500, remains a Hold due to weak AI strategy and high turnover.

The Amplify AI Powered Equity ETF (AIEQ) continues to underperform compared to the S&P 500 and other ETFs like IVV and QQQM, due to persistent structural weaknesses in its AI-driven investment strategy. Despite a very high turnover rate of 804%, AIEQ fails to capture significant market upside or protect against downside in volatile conditions, resulting in mediocre returns. The analyst maintains a Hold rating on AIEQ, citing no compelling reasons to prefer it over traditional S&P 500 ETFs given its poor adaptability and track record. Investors are advised to consider more stable options like IVV for better performance and reliability.

QQQM, a broad market ETF mentioned as a more stable alternative to AIEQ, has a market cap of $109.06 billion and a daily trading volume of 2,037,051 shares on Pluang as of Sep 26, 2026 11:11 WIB. The ETF's price is USD 306.54 with a modest 1-day gain of 0.46%. Pluang data also shows a typical holding period of 54 days and a higher sell order activity at 76%, indicating active trading behavior around this ETF.
