This summary was created by AI, based on 5 opinions in the last 12 months.

The Invesco QQQ Trust Series 1, symbol QQQ-Q, is heavily weighted in technology and communications, representing approximately 45-50% of the index. Many experts suggest that despite the strong performance of the tech sector, investors should be cautious about the level of tech exposure in their portfolios. There's a sentiment that acquiring shares before upcoming tech earnings reports could be beneficial, given expectations for strong results. However, some analysts note the potential for overcrowded trades and suggest exploring better risk/reward opportunities in other sectors. Despite this, the overall earnings outlook for major tech companies remains resilient, and the tech complex is seen as being well-positioned amidst market conditions.

TOP PICK

Tracks NASDAQ stocks along with a little bit of biotechs and some financials. The NASDAQ tends to do well during a Santa Claus rally and outperforms the S&P 500. He is expecting this to last until January 23. A short-term trade, but definitely something to be taken advantage of.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick April 14/15. Up 2.69%.) The cubes tend to outperform both the TSE Composite and the S&P 500 in the month of May. After that, they have a tendency to underperform going forward. Now is the time to take some profits.

TOP PICK

Historically, this has outperformed the rest of the market from the middle of April through to the end of May. This partly has to do with its makeup. It is technology, which is when companies announce their new products. Also, a good chunk is biotech, and there are a lot of announcements from the biotechs that come into the market at that time as well.

COMMENT

The beginning of the NASDAQ run up began in the late 70s when we had the birth of the new economy, up to 2000. The NASDAQ came down and bottomed in 2002. There was then a commodity boom, but then the NASDAQ kind of fiddled diddled until we had our financial crisis in 2007. NASDAQ is now marching back to close to its all-time high. The big run up from 2009 is classified as the Echo Technology Boom. He expects the NASDAQ to take out the old top and go beyond that. This may be the last in the series, but it is going to go on yet.

PAST TOP PICK

(A top pick Sept 28/12. Up 17.04%.) About 70% of the NASDAQ index is technology. Historically this sector does best from around now until early January. Looking very interesting again this year.

TOP PICK

(Do not purchase this top pick until around mid-October.) Historically the technology sector has been the strongest sector from October 9th right through until the end of January. Biggest holding is Apple (AAPL-Q).

COMMENT
He prefers this ETF as it has a fairly liquid options market with it. If you are looking for growth, this is probably the place you are going to see it.
COMMENT
Basically a NASDQ composite index. Has formed a bit of a topping pattern. Broke support recently and has gone right back to the break down level. Typically will go sideways for the next 2 to 4 weeks and ultimately you should see it move higher. Historically has underperformed the market from July to around 3rd week in October. Preferred strategy is to own the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY-N) or Dow Jones Industrial Average.
BUY
This is basically a NASDAQ exchange. He loves that tech stocks. There are some risks. PEs are quite high. Apple (AAPL-Q) is about 15% of this right now. He likes this very much.
COMMENT
NASDAQ ETF. If you believe the technology sector is going to do well or outperform the rest of the market, this is probably a good place to put some of your assets. He prefers picking individual stocks.
COMMENT
QQQQ ETF. Prefers to play NASDAQ with the NASDAQ 100 Equity Hedged-Cdn$ (ZQQ-T) because it is hedged. However if you have funds in the US and are not concerned about that, he would hold on to it.
BUY
Power Share QQQQ ETF. (Technology) US ETFs are cheaper than Canadian ETFs. Likes this one.
TOP PICK
Top Short A pairs trade going Long Apple (AAPL-Q) and Short Power Share QQQQQ (QQQQ-Q). Trying to avoid market risk. Not bullish on S&P as it approaches $1200.
TOP PICK
Top Short Ed. BNN interviewer referred to this as a Short but the screen showed it as a Top Pick. Phoned Ross Healy for clarification but haven't heard back. My interpretation is that if the NASDAQ 100 reaches 1750, then you should Short this. Sorry I couldn't be more clear. Bill
BUY
If you are looking at a basket of tech stocks this will mitigate your risk.
