Benefits & Strategy
Index Construction
- Compared to market cap weighting, equal weighting may allow for greater performance contribution from companies with smaller market-capitalization2.
- Broader diversification across market segments may help reduce concentration risk and result in more balanced exposure across constituents and sectors.
- Quarterly rebalancing maintains consistency of equal weightings after regular market fluctuations.
2Market Capitalization is the total dollar market value of all of a company’s outstanding shares, and is calculated by multiplying a company’s shares outstanding by the current market price of one share.
Target Index
The NASDAQ-100® Equal Weighted Index (NETR) includes 100 of the largest non-financial securities listed on NASDAQ®, but instead of being weighted by market capitalization, each of the constituents is initially set at 1.00%. The index is reviewed and adjusted annually in December, but replacements may be made any time throughout the year. The index is rebalanced quarterly in March, June, September and December. One cannot directly invest in an index.
