QQQ ETF Shatters Records as Tech Rally Defies Gravity

Institutional Avalanche

Massive inflows flood the Nasdaq-tracking fund as traditional finance finally wakes up to what crypto natives knew years ago—tech disruption pays better dividends than boomer stocks. The QQQ just pulled in its largest single-day volume since the 2023 AI boom, proving even Wall Street dinosaurs can learn new tricks when there's money on the table.

Regulatory Tango

Meanwhile, the SEC continues its slow-motion dance with innovation—approving paperwork while simultaneously creating more of it. Because nothing says 'financial progress' like adding another layer of compliance bureaucracy to the mix.

Future-Proof or Fashion Statement?

QQQ's performance makes Treasury bonds look like medieval relics, but let's be real—this is the same institution that still thinks fax machines are cutting-edge technology. The fund's tracking error remains tighter than a banker's purse strings during bonus season, though whether that's skill or luck remains anyone's guess.
