iShares NASDAQ 100 Index ETF (CAD-Hedged) (XQQ-T)

Good to get US exposure.

NASDAQ is primarily tech companies, and you pay up for that. Growth rate for a lot of those companies is strong. But he sees the market broadening out to other sectors. As the economy and the monetary environment improve, we'll see industrials and financials improve. We might even see some rotation.

The US version of a US-stock ETF will always be cheaper. For QQQ, you're paying 20 bps; XQQ is 39 bps, almost double. XQQ is hedged, which hasn't helped you, might help you going forward but doesn't see CAD having a big push against the USD. He'd prefer QQQ, but be cautious on tech at this point.

TEC is similar to the NASDAQ as a whole. Market-weighted exposure to some of the biggest technology names like the Magnificent 7. His view on the Big 7 is still positive, still upside in all of them. As long as nothing changes on the underlying thesis, he'd still focus on some of those large-cap tech names. This fund lets you do that. 

XQQ is another name to look at.

The NASDAQ effectively came back today. The tech sector gave a sign that it might do okay come Monday. It was way over its 200 day moving average, but it has come back. The indications today show that it might move up.

The volume does not matter that much. It depends on the stocks within the ETF. People seem to prefer the ZQQ-T, but not the XQQ-T. He assumes the ZQQ-T is hedged.
