The Invesco NASDAQ Next Gen 100 ETF (QQQJ) targets the 101st to 200th largest Nasdaq non-financial companies, focusing on mid-cap growth potential. Recently, QQQJ outperformed larger-cap ETFs like QQQ and QQQM, likely due to short-term capital rotation away from mega-cap stocks. However, the fund's structure causes its best performers to graduate to the Nasdaq-100 index, leaving QQQJ with lagging stocks over time. While it can serve as a complementary diversification tool, it is not recommended as a long-term replacement for QQQ or QQQM ETFs.
