BlackRock will launch Nasdaq 100 Index ETF to challenge Jing Shun's dominant position BlackRock announced on Tuesday that it will launch an ETF that tracks the tech focused Nasdaq 100 index, aimed at meeting investors' growing demand for participation in AI driven stock market surges. The iShares Nasdaq 100 ETF, launched by the world's largest asset management company, will track this US flagship index and begin trading on Thursday. Not long ago, Nasdaq revised its inclusion criteria to accelerate the inclusion of newly listed companies such as SpaceX into the index. BlackRock's ETF will compete with Nasdaq 100 related products under Invesco; Jingshun has long held a dominant position in this field, with its QQQ Trust Series 1 and Nasdaq 100 ETF highly favored by investors who wish to invest in large cap growth and technology stocks.
