QQQA Is the First ETF Focused on Select Nasdaq-100 Stocks with the Potential to Outperform

ProShares, a premier provider of ETFs, today launched the ProShares Nasdaq-100 Dorsey Wright Momentum ETF (Nasdaq: QQQA). QQQA is the first ETF focusing on select Nasdaq-100 stocks identified as having the greatest potential to outperform.

The ETF follows the Nasdaq-100 Dorsey Wright Momentum Index and relies on the expertise of Dorsey, Wright & Associates (“Dorsey Wright”), a recognized leader in momentum investing. Dorsey Wright identifies the 21 stocks for the index based on their proprietary “Relative Strength” approach.

“For years, the Nasdaq-100 has been a bellwether index for investing in innovative companies. ProShares is pleased to introduce the first Nasdaq-100 ETF using Dorsey Wright’s time-tested approach to identify stocks with the greatest potential to outperform,” said ProShares CEO Michael L. Sapir.

Financial professionals rely on Dorsey Wright investment research, and the company’s flagship “Relative Strength” system powers the investment decisions for $11 billion in assets.

Important Information

Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. This ProShares ETF is non-diversified and entails certain risks, including imperfect benchmark correlation and market price variance, that may decrease performance. Please see summary and full prospectuses for a more complete description of risks. There is no guarantee any ProShares ETF will achieve its investment objective.

Momentum investing emphasizes selecting stocks that have higher recent price performance compared to other stocks. Momentum can change quickly and changes may occur between index reconstitutions. Companies that previously exhibited high momentum may underperform other companies that did not exhibit high momentum. Certain investment styles may fall in and out of favor. If momentum investing is out of favor, the fund’s performance may lag behind other funds using different investment styles.

The fund concentrates its investments in certain sectors. Narrowly focused investments typically exhibit higher volatility.

Natural or environmental disasters, including pandemics and epidemics, have been and can be highly disruptive to economies and markets and have recently led, and may continue to lead, to increased market volatility and significant market losses.

Carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of ProShares before investing. This and other information can be found in their summary and full prospectuses. Read them carefully before investing.
