Out of curiosity I looked at the top ten holdings of QQQE and SXW (data from Yahoo).
SXW is a very interesting list. It's not clear to me how many are 'moaty' yet. Some seem to be trying to get established (QBTS is quantum computing), some have negative earnings.

QQQE Top 10 Holdings (10.37% of Total Assets)
Symbol Company % Assets
AVGO Broadcom Inc. 1.07%
FANG Diamondback Energy, Inc. 1.05%
GFS GLOBALFOUNDRIES Inc. 1.04%
SBUX Starbucks Corporation 1.04%
MCHP Microchip Technology Incorporated 1.03%

BIIB Biogen Inc. 1.03%
NVDA NVIDIA Corporation 1.03%
EXC Exelon Corporation 1.02%
