Want to invest in Nasdaq but don't know where to start? Here are four options, each with its own advantages:



**Open a US stock account directly** - The most straightforward way. Platforms like Futu and Tiger Brokers can handle it, but the account opening process is a bit more complicated, requiring identity verification.

**Buy QDII funds** - Can be purchased through domestic banks and securities firms, no need to bother with a US stock account. The downside is slightly higher fees and quota restrictions.

**Hong Kong Stock Connect channels** - If you have a Hong Kong stock account, you can indirectly invest through some Nasdaq ETFs listed in Hong Kong, which is a middle-ground solution.

**Use a distribution agency** - Many wealth management platforms now offer ready-made Nasdaq product packages, convenient but make sure to review the fee structure carefully.

Each method differs in entry barriers, costs, and flexibility, so choose based on your capital and investment habits. Don't just focus on returns; risk management is even more important.

Another way to harvest the little guys, the fee rate can be deadly, make sure to see clearly.

Opening an Futu account is really annoying, going through all that verification process took forever, but directly going all-in on NASDAQ is still satisfying.

Uh... These four points sound like nonsense. The key issue is that no one is addressing counterparty risk. How many people have actually investigated the capital flows behind Futu and Tiger?

Opening a US stock account directly is the most straightforward, though it can be a bit of a hassle. But if you're really eager to invest, this process isn't a big deal... The Hong Kong Stock Connect is also pretty good, saving the trouble.

It's the same old story again; the fee rate is really the killer.

Opening a US stock account directly is a bit of a barrier. I'm currently messing around on Futu. The identity verification part is indeed annoying, but once it's done, the freedom is incredible. Fee rates are really an invisible killer. QDII may seem convenient, but in reality, it's a huge loss.

Opening a US stock account directly is the best, everything else is just paying an IQ tax.
