Returns the fund reported

Cross-checked against a series computed separately from prices: median difference — percentage points over 9 months, which is roughly the distributions. Every month with the filing it came from: QQQ.json · all funds.
Who borrows QQQ's shares
2026-06-30The fund lends its holdings, and Item B.4.a of the filing names every firm holding them. At 2026-06-30, $1.6bn was out to 16 borrowers, 0.33% of net assets. The largest, BofA Securities, Inc., held 28.6% of it.
| Borrower | On loan | Share of the loan |
|---|---|---|
| BofA Securities, Inc. | $462m | 28.6% |
| CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS INC. | $392m | 24.3% |
| BARCLAYS BANK PLC | $190m | 11.8% |
| MORGAN STANLEY & CO LLC | $164m | 10.1% |
| Wells Fargo Bank, National Association | $104m | 6.4% |
Cash collateral reported against the loan: 0.35% of net assets, 106.2% of the amount lent. That is a floor on the collateral, not the whole of it — collateral the fund does not hold as a position is not in this filing, so a figure under 100% is not evidence of under-collateralisation. How that figure behaves across all funds. Every quarter QQQ has filed, with each borrower: QQQ.json · all funds.

2026-03-31 → 2026-06-30101 positions became 103: 11 added (3.9% of the fund at the later date), 9 dropped (2.0% at the earlier date). Half the sum of all weight changes, a turnover proxy: 17.6%. Positions are matched on identifiers, so a security whose identifier changed shows as one drop and one add.

Asset categories and pricing
as of 2026-06-3099.65% equity, 0.35% short-term investment as filed; 99.7% carried at a quoted market price (fair-value level 1). Categories and levels are the filer's; what a low level-1 share does and does not mean is in the measure's page.
Derivative exposure and counterparties
as of 2026-06-30A position count cannot describe a fund that uses derivatives, because a swap is filed at its unrealised gain, not its exposure. These are the notionals the fund itself reported, against net assets of $490.10B. Notional of an interest-rate or currency swap is not equity exposure.

SCHD Holdings: 99 Stocks, the Top 10 at 44%, and What It Actually Adds to a VOO Portfolio
What the Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF held on 31 May 2026 from its SEC Form N-PORT filing: all 99 stocks with weights, Qualcomm 6.7%, Texas Instruments 5.9%, UnitedHealth 5.1%; the top ten are 43.6% and the fund behaves like 32 equal holdings. Then the question people are really asking — 92% of SCHD's money sits in companies VOO already owns, so what does holding both change? The overlap arithmetic answers it.

Nvidia 7.6%, Apple 6.7%, Micron 5.6%; the top ten are 45.0% and the top fifty 87.5%. Overlap with VOO, VGT, XLK and QQQM, and how the concentration has moved since 2020.

How Long Will Your Money Last? The 4% Rule Tested on 25 Years of Real Fund Returns
A retirement withdrawal test that uses the actual monthly returns of VTI, QQQ, IWM, AGG and TLT since 1999-2003 — including 2000-02 and 2008 — instead of an assumed return distribution. Eight portfolios, four withdrawal rates, 2,000 resampled 30-year paths each. The 4% rule survives almost everywhere in nominal terms; the interesting numbers are at 5%, 6% and 7%, and in what a bad decade does to a bond-only or Nasdaq-only retiree.
