When did QQQ go public?
Investing in the NASDAQ-100
On December 1, 2004, it was moved from the American Stock Exchange where it had the symbol QQQ to the NASDAQ and given the new four-letter code QQQQ, sometimes called the "quad Qs" by traders.
Why is it called QQQ?
Launched in March 1999, the fund originally was listed on the Amex Stock Exchange with the ticker symbol QQQ. When the fund was moved to the Nasdaq in December 2004, it was assigned the ticker QQQQ because all Nasdaq-listed securities were required to have four-letter symbols.
