Jerry....from Laura's E-Mail on the NQ's... Composition of the NDX: the top five stocks--Cisco (CSCO), Intel (INTC), Microsoft (MSFT), Oracle (ORCL) and Qualcomm (QCOM)--comprise fully one-third of the index and the top twelve stocks of the Nasdaq 100 make up 50% of the weighting on the index. All 100 stocks in the index and their weightings are available at the Nasdaq Web site. Following are the leading 12 stocks on the Nadaq 100 arranged by weighting. It pays to know these stocks and to know how they move since they disproportionately influence the movement of the Nasdaq 100 index. CSCO - 8.5% MSFT - 7.5% INTC - 7.1% QCOM - 5.0% ORCL - 4.5% SUNW - 3.2% JDSU - 3.0% NXTL- 2.6% DELL - 2.5% WCOM - 2.2% VRTS - 2.1% AMAT - 2.0% ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ With the exceptions of AMAT & ORCL...that's a bit of a motley crew, wouldn't you say?... no wonder the NQ's have been under so much pressure...i didn't really realize that WCOM and NXTL had that much effect on the fut's direction.
