ETF Opportunities Trust T-Rex 2X Long NVIDIA Daily Target ETF

The Fund, under normal circumstances, invests in swap agreements that provide 200% daily exposure to NVDA equal to at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes). The Fund will enter into one or more swap agreements with major global financial institutions whereby the Fund and the global financial institution will agree to exchange the return earned on an investment by the Fund in NVDA that is equal, on a daily basis, to 200% of the value of the Funds net assets. The Adviser attempts to consistently apply leverage to obtain NVDA exposure for the Fund equal to 200% of the value of its net assets and expects to rebalance the Funds holdings daily to maintain such exposure. As a result of its investment strategies, the Fund will be concentrated in the industry to which NVDA is assigned (i.e., hold 25% or more of its total assets in investments that provide leveraged exposure in the industry to which NVDA is assigned). As of the date of this prospectus, NVDA is assigned to the semiconductors and related devices industry.

Veracyte Plans To Present Multiple Abstracts At EAU25 Demonstrating Clinical Performance And Utility Of Its Decipher Tests In Prostate And Bladder Cancer

The Federal Reserve left interest rates unchanged at 4.25%-4.50% on Wednesday, with Chairman Jerome Powell reviving the term &#8220;transitory&#8221; to describe the potential inflationary <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tariffs">effects of new tariffs.</a>
While the Fed still projects two rate cuts in 2025 in its latest dot plot, projections now reflect lower growth and higher inflation, fueling renewed concerns about stagflation.
Economists are increasingly skeptical of the Fed's confidence in inflation easing, with some warning of policy missteps and rising recession risks.
Here's a summary of key reactions from leading economists.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">‘Transitory' Is Back: A Risky Assumption</h3>
Allianz chief economic adviser Mohamed El-Erian criticized Powell's use of &#8220;transitory&#8221; to describe tariff-driven inflation, recalling the Fed's 2022 mistake when it downplayed persistent price pressures.
&#8220;It's simply too early to say with any degree of confidence that the inflationary effects will be transitory,&#8221; El-Erian said, adding that businesses and households &#8220;still have fresh in their minds the recent history of high unanticipated inflation.&#8221;
Given the uncertainties, he expected Fed officials to show &#8220;greater humility.&#8221;
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">The word — "transitory" — is back at the Federal Reserve as Chair Powell characterizes the price effects of tariffs as a one-off. I would have thought that, particularly after the big policy mistake of earlier this decade and given all the current uncertainties, some Fed…

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
The Kobeissi Letter ridiculed Powell's response to stagflation concerns, recalling a past press conference where he dismissed the risk, saying he wasn't seeing the &#8220;stag&#8221; or the &#8220;flation.&#8221; Yet, that stance now appears contradictory, as the Fed's latest projections show slower GDP growth alongside rising inflation and unemployment.
&#8220;We are now seeing the &#8216;stag&#8217; and the &#8216;flation&#8217;.&#8221;

</figure>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Mixed Signals On Inflation And Growth</h3>
Jeffrey Roach, chief economist at LPL Financial, said the Fed&#8217;s decision was unsurprising, as policymakers are &#8220;in the midst of policy fog&#8221; while awaiting the impact of upcoming tariffs. 
He highlighted that despite upside risks in recent inflation data, core inflation should decelerate by summer, allowing the Fed to begin cutting rates in June.
Steve Wyett, chief investment strategist at BOK Financial, stressed the uncertainty arising from the Fed&#8217;s forecasts.
&#8220;The Fed remains as confused as the rest of us as to what the impact of policy changes will be,&#8221; he said. 
Charlie Ripley, senior investment strategist at Allianz Investment Management, highlighted the Fed's struggle to balance growth and inflation expectations.
&#8220;Growth appeared to be downgraded more than the uptick of inflation expectations, yet the pace of expected rate cuts remained the same,&#8221; he said, pointing to continued uncertainty around inflation. Yet, the Fed's decision to slow the run-off of its balance sheet in April provided &#8220;some consolation&#8221; for investors.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Recession Warnings Grow Louder</h3>
David Rosenberg, president of Rosenberg Research &amp; Associates Inc., indicates the Fed's updated unemployment forecast is a strong recession indicator. He noted that the Fed now sees unemployment rising to 4.4% by year-end, which historically signals an economic downturn.
&#8220;Back to 1948, that has never happened without an NBER-defined recession,&#8221; Rosenberg said, referring to the National Bureau of Economic Research, which officially declares U.S. recessions. 
He warned that if past trends hold, a recession could materialize as early as July, well before the Fed takes any significant action.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Is Powell Too Dovish?</h3>
Spencer Hakimian, founder of Tolou Capital Management, described Powell as &#8220;very dovish,&#8221; suggesting the Fed is either underestimating inflation risks or &#8220;hoping for a miracle.&#8221;
&#8220;They see higher inflation. But they&#8217;re projecting two more rate cuts,&#8221; he said, calling the approach a &#8220;heads I win, tails you lose&#8221; scenario. Despite his concerns, Hakimian remains bullish on risk assets, advising investors to stay &#8220;long a good amount of risk,&#8221; with 40-50% exposure.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Market Reaction</h3>
Despite concerns from economists, Powell's remarks fueled a risk-on rally. 
The S&amp;P 500 index – as tracked by the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) – closed 1.1% higher on Wednesday, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 jumped 1.4%. Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) surged past $85,000, and gold extended record highs, rising 0.5% to $3,050 per ounce.

Economists React To Powell: 'We Are Now Seeing The Stag And The Flation'

Shopify Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SHOP#NYSE">SHOP</a>) shares traded higher on Wednesday driven by overall market strength following the Federal Reserve&#8217;s decision to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/03/44403637/fed-holds-rates-while-growth-forecasts-slip-inflation-projections-rise">hold interest rates steady</a>.
What To Know: The Fed opted to hold the federal funds rate at a range of 4.25% to 4.50% at its Wednesday meeting, suggesting that the economy remains healthy enough to leave rates unchanged. 
The central bank's March statement highlighted that the economy continues to grow at a strong pace and the labor market remains solid, but inflation pressures are still present. The Fed also acknowledged increased uncertainty around the economic outlook, but took a less hawkish stance overall, which appears to have boosted broader markets.
The Fed&#8217;s latest economic projections were also a key factor contributing to market movement. GDP growth forecasts for 2025 were revised downward to 1.7%, from an earlier projection of 2.1%. 
At the same time, inflation expectations were raised. The core Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) price index, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, was adjusted up to 2.7% for 2025, from the previous forecast of 2.5%. This shift in projections pointed to rising concerns about stagflation, which occurs when the economy experiences slow growth combined with high inflation.
Despite the inflation concerns, the Fed's outlook also included expectations for two interest rate cuts in both 2025 and 2026. Fed Chair Jerome Powell also downplayed recent surveys that have pointed to rising uncertainty among households and businesses. 
"We think our policy is in a good place," Powell said in a press conference Wednesday.

A senior developer who had been loyal to a startup for three years learned the hard way that company loyalty doesn't always pay off. After <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44207260/his-boss-loves-him-a-redditors-friend-refused-a-5k-raise-convinced-it-would-mean-less-money-after-taxes">asking for a raise</a> to help support his growing family, he was quickly replaced with a cheaper worker. Now, he's fully <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/43346851/surprisingly-feasible-software-engineer-shares-how-a-175k-second-job-helped-him-save-20k-in-just-two-months">embracing the &#8220;overemployed&#8221; lifestyle</a> and vows never to rely on just one job again.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Tough Lesson In Job Security</h2>
The developer <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/overemployed/comments/1jab7k7/never_quitting_oe_again/">shared</a> his story on Reddit, explaining how he had joined a small <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-invest-in-startups">startup</a> three years ago. As a contractor outside the U.S., he wasn't eligible for stock options but worked hard to help the company grow.
"There was a lot to be done, and boy, I did deliver <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43820555/tech-ceo-calls-working-two-jobs-a-form-of-theft-and-deception-fires-engineers-earning-140000-for-holding-secret-second-full-time-jobs">even with a J2</a>," he wrote, referring to his second job.

</ul>
Over the years, the company became highly profitable, but his compensation barely changed—just a 2% raise in total. Despite that, he stayed because he liked the team.
Things changed in November when he found out his wife was pregnant. Wanting to prioritize his family and health, he decided to quit his second job and focus on his primary employer. At the start of the year, he requested a 15% raise, explaining that inflation had eaten into his earnings and that the company could afford it.
Fifteen days later, one of the company's founders scheduled a meeting. The message was harsh: They had found someone cheaper and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44277188/a-poverty-sentence-heres-why-some-say-losing-a-federal-job-is-worse-than-being-fired-in-the-private-sector">no longer needed his services</a>.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Embracing The Overemployed Lifestyle</h2>
After losing his job so suddenly, the developer quickly secured a new position. Not stopping there, he also lined up a second job and is considering adding a third.
"Never again will I be relying [on] the safety of my family on a single [employer]," he wrote.
His story resonated with many online, with commenters sharing similar experiences of being let go despite years of dedication. Others encouraged him to embrace the benefits of working multiple remote jobs.
One user shared a strikingly similar experience: "I casually requested 2 weeks holiday in advance due to my son being born. They responded with a &#8216;You are fired&#8217; 1 week before he was born. We were literally at the bottom for months because of this because I was not OEing then."

Another pointed out how companies exploit workers whenever they can: "At my J1, they offered to convert me to [full-time].&#8221; The person went on to explain how their entire team—many with pregnant wives—had been fired after relocating, then rehired a year later at lower pay. &#8220;These companies hate us," he said.
One user summed up what many have come to realize: "Companies don't care about you as a person, and managers will let you go if they think it makes their lives easier or they can pad their own pockets. I've got kid #3 on the way and I'm extremely hesitant to let anyone in on it professionally. Companies want you to be 150% loyal but refuse any loyalty back."
For this developer, the lesson was this: job security comes from diversifying income streams, not from company loyalty. And judging by the comments, he's far from alone in that realization.

On Palo Alto Networks, she sees a $15 billion annualized revenue opportunity in platformization and views it as a stronger long-term play compared to CrowdStrike Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWD#NASDAQ">CRWD</a>), which she recently sold.
Target, down 24% since February, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44360075/retail-giant-target-which-relies-on-china-for-30-of-its-merchandise-warns-of-profit-hit-as-trumps-trade-war-bites">has struggled with product mix</a> but is showing signs of recovery, particularly in discretionary spending.

Meanwhile, she initiated a position in Nextera Energy, noting its historically high valuation but seeing an opportunity now that it trades at 18 times price-to-sales. She praised its joint venture with GE Vernova Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GEV#NYSE">GEV</a>) in natural gas and data centers.
Additionally, Link named Boeing her top 2025 stock due to leadership changes and improving execution.

<h2>Discovering Insmed: A Closer Look</h2>
Insmed Inc is a biopharmaceutical company transforming the lives of patients with serious and rare diseases. The company's first commercial product is ARIKAYCE (amikacin liposome inhalation suspension), approved in the US for the treatment of Mycobacterium Avium Complex (MAC) lung disease as part of a combination antibacterial drug regimen for adult patients with limited or no alternative treatment options. It is also developing Brensocatib, an oral reversible dipeptidyl peptidase 1 inhibitor for bronchiectasis and other neutrophil-mediated diseases, and Treprostinil Palmitil Inhalation Powder, an inhaled treprostinil prodrug for pulmonary hypertension linked to interstitial lung disease and pulmonary arterial hypertension.
<h3>Breaking Down Insmed's Financial Performance</h3>
Market Capitalization Analysis: The company exhibits a lower market capitalization profile, positioning itself below industry averages. This suggests a smaller scale relative to peers.
Revenue Growth: Insmed's revenue growth over a period of 3 months has been noteworthy. As of 31 December, 2024, the company achieved a revenue growth rate of approximately 24.79%. This indicates a substantial increase in the company's top-line earnings. As compared to competitors, the company surpassed expectations with a growth rate higher than the average among peers in the Health Care sector.
Net Margin: Insmed's net margin lags behind industry averages, suggesting challenges in maintaining strong profitability. With a net margin of -225.53%, the company may face hurdles in effective cost management.
Return on Equity (ROE): Insmed's ROE falls below industry averages, indicating challenges in efficiently using equity capital. With an ROE of -61.28%, the company may face hurdles in generating optimal returns for shareholders.
Return on Assets (ROA): Insmed's ROA falls below industry averages, indicating challenges in efficiently utilizing assets. With an ROA of -11.55%, the company may face hurdles in generating optimal returns from its assets.
Debt Management: Insmed's debt-to-equity ratio stands notably higher than the industry average, reaching 4.03. This indicates a heavier reliance on borrowed funds, raising concerns about financial leverage.
<h2>The Basics of Analyst Ratings</h2>
Analysts are specialists within banking and financial systems that typically report for specific stocks or within defined sectors. These people research company financial statements, sit in conference calls and meetings, and speak with relevant insiders to determine what are known as analyst ratings for stocks. Typically, analysts will rate each stock once a quarter. 
Some analysts publish their predictions for metrics such as growth estimates, earnings, and revenue to provide additional guidance with their ratings. When using analyst ratings, it is important to keep in mind that stock and sector analysts are also human and are only offering their opinions to investors.

지난주 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/03/44341328/stocks-enter-correction-zone-tariff-fears-hammer-consumer-confidence-inflation-worries-hit-32-year-highs-this-week-in-markets" target="_blank" rel="noopener">미국 증시는 4주 연속 하락세</a>로 마감하며 2022년 5월 이후 최장 하락을 기록했다.
S&amp;P 500 지수는 2월 고점 대비 10% 하락하며 조정 영역에 진입했다. 투자자들은 무역 긴장과 정부 지출 삭감에 대한 불안감이 계속되고 있다. 예상보다 부진한 인플레이션 지표가 연준 금리 인하에 대한 기대감을 높였지만, 시장은 여전히 백악관의 정책 불확실성에 머물러 있다.
하지만 전반적인 시장 약세에도 불구하고 지난주 일부 ETF는 다른 종목보다 더 좋은 성과를 보였다.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">수익률 상위 5개 ETF</h3>
다음 ETF들은 광범위한 시장 변동성 속에서도 기회를 강조하고 있다.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">지난주 시장을 움직인 요인</h2>
트럼프 대통령의 무역 관세 보류와 일론 머스크의 정부효율부가 주도한 갑작스러운 지출 삭감으로 인해 투자자들의 불안감이 고조되고 있다. 2월 CPI 는 전년 동월 대비 2.8% 상승하여 컨센서스 2.9%보다 낮았지만, 이렇게 예상보다 완만한 인플레이션 수치에도 시장은 백악관의 정책 조치에 집착하고 있다.
트럼프는 EU가 미국산 위스키에 대한 50%의 관세를 인하하면 유럽산 와인에 200%의 관세를 부과하고 캐나다산 철강과 알루미늄에 대한 관세를 두 배로 올리겠다고 공언하며, 자동차 관세도 위협했다.
지난주 소비자 심리지수가 하락하고 장기 인플레이션 기대치가 1993년 이후 최고치를 기록했다. 경제 불확실성에 따라 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/specialty-etfs/25/03/44335436/gold-etfs-shine-as-spot-price-tops-3000-during-safe-haven-demand" target="_blank" rel="noopener">금 가격은 온스당 3,000달러를 기록했으며</a> 지난 11주 중 10주 동안 상승했다.
지난 주말에는 정부 셧다운을 피할 수 있다는 확인과 새로운 무역 뉴스의 부재로 시장이 소폭 반등했다. 이번 주 연준 FOMC 회의에서는 금리동결이 예상되지만, 인플레이션이 지속되는 가운데 성장 둔화인 스태그플레이션에 대한 우려가 커지고 있다.

Technology Select Sector SPDR Fund(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLK#NYSE">XLK</a>)가 5% 이상 하락하고 광범위한 시장 성과를 측정하는 S&amp;P 500 지수보다 저조한 성과를 거두면서 8월 2일로 끝난 주에 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/24/08/40142331/chip-stocks-staring-at-another-bloodbath-as-intel-tumbles-nvidia-dips-4-asml-crumbles-over-6-whats-a" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">기술 분야가 급락</a>했다. 지난주에 해당 부문을 끌어온 요인에 대한 요약과 이러한 주식이 단기 및 중기적으로 어디로 향하고 있는지에 대한 전망은 다음과 같다.
엇갈린 기술업계 실적, 지정학적 요인의 압박: 많은 거대 기술 기업들의 실적 보고서를 기다리면서 트레이더들이 신중한 태도로 시작한 기술 주식은 약간의 승리로 한 주를 시작했다. 그들은 일부 기술 부문의 실적 실망과 임박한 촉매제에 대한 경고로 인해 화요일에 눈에 띄게 약세로 돌아섰다.
어드밴스드 마이크로 디바이시스(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>)의 강력한 실적 보고서는 수요일 기술주 반등을 촉진했지만 목요일 거시적 우려로 인해 매도 압력이 다시 촉발되었다. 제조 부문과 고용 시장에 대한 별도의 보고서는 트레이더들이 메타 플랫폼스(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>)의 상당히 탄탄한 실적을 크게 무시하면서 해당 부문의 실패로 판명되었다.
인텔(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>)의 실적이 부진하고 엔비디아(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>)에 대한 연방거래위원회(FTC)의 조사 가능성이 보고되면서 기술주에 대한 트레이더들의 위험 선호도가 약화되면서 매도 압력이 금요일까지 확대되었다.
지난주 기술주 매도에 대해 웨드부시(Wedbush)의 애널리스트인 다니엘 아이브스(Daniel Ives)는 &#8220;완벽한 폭풍으로 인한 공포가 기술주 매도를 가속화했다. 취약한 일자리 보고서가 &#8216;R 단어&#8217;에 대한 두려움을 부추기고, 연준(연방준비제도)이 금리 인하 주기에 너무 늦었다는 우려로 인해 기술주가 이 5등급 폭풍 매도의 중심에 있다&#8221;고 말했다.
8월 2일로 끝난 주의 주요 기술주와 상장지수펀드의 성과는 다음과 같다:
<ul>
<li>iShares Semiconductor ETF(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXX#NASDAQ">SOXX</a>): -9.84%</li>
<li>Invesco QQQ Trust(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>): -3.07%</li>
<li>Vanguard Information Technology Index Fund ETF Shares(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VGT#NYSE">VGT</a>): -4.90%</li>
<li>Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bull 3X Shares(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXL#NASDAQ">SOXL</a>): -30.01%</li>
<li>T-Rex 2X Long NVIDIA Daily Target ETF(CBOE: NVDX): -12.21%</li>
<li>엔비디아: -5.12%</li>
<li>인텔: -31.48%</li>
<li>AMD: -5.35%</li>
<li>Arm 홀딩스(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARM#NASDAQ">ARM</a>): -23.86% (이번 분기 실적의 일부 손실)</li>
<li>애플(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>): +0.87%</li>
</ul>
100대 비금융 기술주 성과를 추적하는 나스닥 100 지수가 지난주의 매도세 이후 조정 영역에 진입했다. 나스닥 100 지수는 7월 11일 장중 최고치인 18,671.07에서 10% 조금 넘게 하락했다. 최근 고점 대비 10% 이상 하락하는 것을 주식시장 용어로는 조정이라고 한다.

다음은 (What Lies Ahead)? 아이브스는 이러한 기술 강세장과 기술주에 대한 역사적인 상승은 끝나지 않았다고 말한다. 그는 "이것은 손에 쥐고 있어야 하는 기술주에 대한 다년간의 강세장에서 한 순간에 불과하다"고 말했다.
이 분석가는 연착륙을 요구했으며 연준이 향후 18개월 동안 대규모 금리 인하 주기를 시작할 것으로 예상했다.
기술주에 대한 아이브스의 낙관주의는 주로 인공지능 기술에 대한 그의 자신감을 전제로 한다.
그는 &#8220;우리는 이것이 기술 생태계 전반에 걸쳐 성장률을 가속화하면서 앞으로 수년 동안 더 광범위한 기술 부문을 촉진할 4차 산업 혁명이 될 1조 달러 규모의 AI Cap Ex(자본 지출) 주기의 초기 단계라고 굳게 믿고 있다&#8221;고 말했다.
이번 6월 분기 실적 시즌은 웨드부시의 강세론과 대규모 클라우드 구축에 대한 현장 점검을 입증했다고 아이브스가 말했다.
&#8220;미국 소비자 약화에 대한 우려(아마존 소비자 지출 감소), 연준의 대응 지연, 경기 경착륙 및 약세 시장 논리 재등장에 대한 걱정을 충분히 이해하지만, 우리는 기술 지출과 이 대규모 AI 기술 구축에서 중심에 설 승자들에게 집중하고 있다. 이 게임은 아직 9회 중 2회에 불과하다&#8221;라고 그가 말했다.
연준이 금리 인하를 시작할 것이라는 전망은 거대주에는 부정적이지만 중소형(SMID) 기술주에는 긍정적일 수 있다. 또한, 대선을 계기로 과잉규제 문제도 부각되고 있다. 공화당의 승리는 많은 사람들에게 규제 환경이 훨씬 덜 엄격해지는 결과로 간주된다.
AI를 활용하는 또 다른 이름인 팔란티어 테크놀로지스(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>)는 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/08/40129511/palantir-faces-critical-prove-me-moment-analyst-says-commercial-growth-will-be-star" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">이번 주 실적을 발표할 예정</a>이며 잠재적으로 AI 물결의 강점에 대한 통찰력을 제공할 것이다. 경제적 측면에서는 두 가지 서비스 부문 활동 수치와 실업수당 청구 등 주목할 만한 발표가 있어 상황이 다소 느려질 가능성이 높다.
<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Benzinga Pro</a>의 데이터에 따르면 QQQ는 금요일 2.37% 하락한 448.75달러에 종료했다.
