Are MQQQ and QID levered on the same thing?

Yes. Both are levered on the Nasdaq-100, MQQQ at +2 times each calendar month’s move and QID at -2 times each day’s move.

Can I hold MQQQ or QID for a year?

MQQQ resets every calendar month and QID resets every day, so the multiple in each name applies to one period only, and the periods compound. Over a year the total is not the multiple times the year’s move.

Which is cheaper, MQQQ or QID?

MQQQ charges 1.03% a year and QID charges 0.95%, so QID is cheaper. Fees come from each fund's prospectus.

About each fund

MQQQ

Over the month to Sep 30, 2026, MQQQ returned 6.0%, against 6.6% for twice QQQ's return. Across its 12 completed months (Oct 2025 to Sep 2026), the gap to +2 times QQQ ran from −1.0 pts to −0.3 pts.

MQQQ aims to return +2 times QQQ's move over each full calendar month, from the close of the last business day of one month to the close of the last business day of the next. It does not seek that multiple over any other period. Over the three months to Oct 27, 2026, QQQ returned 6.9%.

QID

Over the three months to Oct 27, 2026, QID lost 12.6%, against −14.8% for twice the inverse of QQQ's daily moves. Of that 1.2, daily compounding is −1.0 points, which any −2 times fund would show over the same path, and the fund itself is +2.2 points against −2 times each day's move, compounded.

Read the multiple against the whole window instead and −2 times QQQ's 6.9% implies −13.8%, which makes QID look 1.2 points over. That is not the fund's objective, which is daily. QID aims to return -2 times QQQ's move each day, then resets. Over one day it does that. Over longer periods the daily results compound, so the total is not -2 times the period's move: it is lower after a fall and recovery, and can be higher in a steady run. QQQ moved at 19% annualized over that window. The more it moves, the further the two numbers separate.
