On April 6, BlackRock is targeting a segment of the $13.7 trillion U.S. ETF market long dominated by SSGA: Nasdaq 100 Index-tracking funds. A filing submitted to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on Monday shows the firm plans to launch the **iShares Nasdaq 100 ETF** (ticker: IQQ), which will directly track the index. If approved and launched, IQQ will be one of the few U.S.-listed ETFs focused specifically on the Nasdaq 100—and the first such product not managed by SSGA. Since the Nasdaq Stock Market introduced the index in 1985, it has been selective about authorizing its use. While some U.S. ETFs gain exposure to Nasdaq 100 constituents via derivatives, SSGA has nearly monopolized the market for **pure Nasdaq 100 Index-tracking ETFs**. This dynamic has spawned two major funds: the $374 billion **Invesco QQQ Trust** (ticker: QQQ)—one of the world’s largest ETFs—and the $70 billion **SSGA Nasdaq 100 ETF**. ### Notes on U.S. style adjustments: 1. **Concisenes

First, the two sides’ core demands are hard to reconcile: - Iran views control of the Strait of Hormuz and its stockpile of 60% enriched uranium as key strategic bargaining chips, and has made clear it will not give up these fundamental interests for a short-term truce. - The U.S., meanwhile, demands Iran reopen the strait and address its nuclear materials—essentially asking Tehran for unilateral concessions and setting aside Iran’s core interests, which touches on Iran’s sovereignty and security red lines. Second, trust in talks is very weak: - Iran acknowledges exchanging information with the U.S. via friendly third countries but denies direct negotiatio
