SPY tracks the S&P 500 and QQQ the Nasdaq 100. The latter leaves out financial companies and is far more concentrated in technology, so the gap between the two largely shows how far tech stocks have pulled away from the rest of the index.

Each series is converted to a percentage of its own starting point, so all of them begin at zero. What is compared is the return over the period, not price levels.
