NAZ Alert!! (interesting post from csf.colorado.edu An extremely manipulative move is underway! The NDX is going to no longer be a cap weighted index it has been!! At the end of this FRIDAY the weighting is going to be changed in such a way as to reduce the weights of the biggies -- Big M, Intel, Crisco, Dellicious, WorstCom, etc., and increase the weighting of the little guys and gals. Also, Amazing.come will be added to the index. Since the biggies are far more over-valued than the small components this may be an attempt to keep the index from falling too much in a major decline. Whatever way these weight are going to be set now an always be manipulated in the future. What are the implications? Those who are long the index will HAVE TO SELL the BIGGIES on Friday going into the options expiration. The NDX is the best performing index long-term by far and enough people have been speculating on the index and options. Also see geocities.com
