ETFs shrug off pending multitrillion dollar Nasdaq 100 revamp
July 17, 2023--There is no evidence yet of front-running despite decision to massively reduce weightings of tech giants
A multitrillion-dollar revamp of one of the world's largest stock market indices looks set to be a bit of a damp squib in the exchange traded fund world.
The combined weighting of six vast technology behemoths-Microsoft, Apple, Alphabet, Nvidia, Amazon and Tesla-in the Nasdaq 100 index is due to be slashed from the 50.9 per cent they reached at the close of trading on July 7, when the "special rebalance" was announced, to just 40 per cent.
The revamp, which will be enacted at close of trading on July 21, is designed to ensure funds tracking the Nasdaq 100 do not breach industry-wide fund-concentration limits, after a strong rally by the tech mega-caps drove their combined weighting beyond limits set by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the regulator.
