QQMG

Market cap $210M

The Invesco ESG NASDAQ 100 ETF (QQMG) made its debut on 10/27/2021, and is a smart beta exchange traded fund that provides broad exposure to the Style Box - Large Cap Blend category of the market.

Environmental, social and governance (ESG) investing endured significant political scrutiny in recent years, but an array of studies suggest that scrutiny that didn't negatively affect some market participants' views of this investing style.

In quiet fashion, environmental, social, and governance (ESG) ETFs added billions of dollars in fresh assets in late 2025, confirming plenty of advisors and retail investors continue prioritizing sustainable investing while adhering to ESG principles.

Perhaps it's on the “down low,” as the kids like to say, but enthusiasm for environmental, social and governance (ESG) remains. In fact, it's palpable among some professional investors.

Invesco ESG NASDAQ 100 ETF offers exposure to the recalibrated version of the Nasdaq-100 featuring only names that successfully passed the ESG screening. QQMG holds all stocks present in QQQ except ten, like ADI, HON, and CEG, to name a few. With a larger allocation to IT and energy ignored, it has stronger growth metrics but is also more expensive than QQQ.

ETFs like XLG provide a diversified way to benefit from the Mag 7's Q3 earnings surge and the positive momentum expected going forward.

The fanfare and hoopla surrounding environmental, social and governance (ESG) investing seen several years ago has largely waned, but that doesn't mean ESG and sustainable investing principles are no longer prioritized by advisors and investors. Actually, those investment styles remain priorities.

Investing involves risk. That's just the lay of the land.

Just a few short years ago, ESG investing was front-and-center in the asset allocation conversation. Right or wrong, that attention drew political scrutiny in the U.S. That prompted temporary repudiation of ESG and sustainable investing styles.

Much of the vitriol aimed at environmental, social and governance (ESG) investing appears to have died down — a positive for multiple reasons, not the least of which is that the party in power in Washington, DC was the one that led the anti-ESG crusade in recent years.
