# Cheaper Nasdaq-100 ETFs arrived, but QQQM still wins for most retail investors

QQQM vs IQQ vs QNDX: BlackRock's IQQ and State Street's QNDX both entered the Nasdaq-100 ETF market in mid-2026 at 0.10%, undercutting Invesco's QQQM by five basis points — but wider bid/ask spreads and capital gains tax consequences for existing holders mean the cheaper funds are the right choice for fewer investors than the headline fee difference implies.
