What is the Nasdaq Composite Index made of?

The NASDAQ 100 is comprised of the largest nonfinancial companies on the NASDAQ, including those in sectors such as media, transportation, biotech, retail, industrial, technology, and healthcare. The NASDAQ 100 is a combination of common shares, follow-up shares, ADRs, and common shares. A large proportion of the index comes from the technology sector, which currently accounts for more than 50% of all index components on the NASDAQ 100.

The NASDAQ is one of the largest and most well-known stock exchanges in the world, and traders flock to the NASDAQ 100 because historically in bullish years it has consistently outperformed other indices such as the Dow Jones and the S&P 500.

The NASDAQ tracks some of the largest non-financial companies in the world, with the United States economy being the largest on the planet and the NASDAQ represents one of the global centers of finance and commerce. The NASDAQ maps the progress of the US market and acts as an indicator of the state of the world economy.

The NASDAQ 100 is a market capitalization weighted index. What this means is that the index value is calculated by multiplying the last selling price of each of the securities by the total value of its outstanding shares, and then weighting that relative to each of the other securities in the index.

The largest companies by overall market value have a higher weight within the NASDAQ 100 index. The total amount is then divided using a divisor to make reporting and analysis of the index more manageable.
