$file_name = 'ETFList.csv';
$url = 'https://www.nasdaq.com/investing/etfs/etf-finder-results.aspx?download=Yes';

function downloadFile($url, $filename)
{

    $ch = curl_init();
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, 'Mozilla/5.0 (compatible ; Googlebot/2.1 ; +http://www.google.com/bot.html)');
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_BINARYTRANSFER, true);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 2);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true);
    $data = curl_exec($ch);
    if (curl_errno($ch)) die(curl_error($ch));
    curl_close($ch);

    $file = fopen($filename, 'wb');
    fwrite($file, $data);
    fclose($file);

    if (file_exists($filename)) {

        header('Content-Description: File Transfer');
        header('Content-Type: text/csv; charset=utf-8');
        header('Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary');
        header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"$filename\"");
        header('Content-Length: ' . filesize($filename));
        readfile($filename);
    }

}

downloadFile($url, $file_name);

There is a line in your php.ini file you can uncomment;

;user_agent="PHP"

Or you can temporarily set it in your code.

ini_set('user_agent', "PHP");
$table = file_get_contents('https://www.nasdaq.com/investing/etfs/etf-finder-results.aspx?download=Yes');

This is because you are using https. See How to download a file over https using php
