Nasdaq 100 Index
The stock index of the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation, or simply NASDAQ index, is one of the most popular assets for investors. It represents the average change of all stock prices that are trading on the NASDAQ exchange. The narrower NASDAQ 100 Index tracks the performance of 100 largest tech stocks that are traded on the NASDAQ exchange. The index is among the three most popular in the United States, which also include the S&P 500 broad market index (US500) and Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA).
Being a pure tech index, it has some unique features:
- The NASDAQ index is heavily affected by market capitalisation of the companies, which have its stocks inside the index. Thus, corporates like Apple, Amazon, Facebook, Intel, Microsoft, NVidia, Tesla, and other tech giants’ stocks have a strong impact on index movements. Tech sector stocks are responsible for 50% of the market cap of the index, for 20% of the consumer sector and 10% of healthcare;
- The index is currently outrunning the S&P 500 index as it has risen by 80% above the latter over the last decade;
- The NASDAQ index is affected by the economic situation and data, including U.S. GDP, wages, investments, and retail sales. The Federal Reserve’s (Fed) decisions have a significant impact on the index. Lower interest rates and easing monetary policy by the Fed have a positive effect on the index. All these developments should be monitored while investing in this asset;
- The Consumer Price Index (CPI) and Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) indexes have a significant impact on the index. When inflation is far above the target at 2%, its increase is negative for the index, as it contributes to the monetary tightening by the Fed. Weak inflation below the target supports the index;
- The NASDAQ index is a risky asset, and is affected by risk appetite. But it has no major influence on the risk appetite itself as it is a sectoral index measuring the performance of tech stocks. The performance of the S&P 500 index and the CBOE Volatility index (VIX) should be monitored to understand risk appetite changes;
- Artificial Intelligence, and other specific tech stories exclusively affect the index. Bottlenecks in logistics and trade wars in high tech segments push the index down much stronger than the stock market in general;
- The index could be traded via CFD’s, futures, or designated ETF’s.
