The Big Tech Index That Weights Every Name Equally, Explained

There is a new way to get exposure to big tech in one shot. Cboe's MGTN index holds the ten biggest tech names, Apple, Nvidia, Tesla, Broadcom, Palantir and more, but instead of weighting them by market cap, it targets an equal 10% each at every monthly review. So no single giant dominates, though weights drift with price until the next adjustment. This covers how the index is built, how its options work, and the one quirk: it settles AM, off the components opening prices. 📊 tastylive: https://www.tastylive.com/ 📰 Get Tom's pre-market analysis every morning: https://www.tastylive.com/newsletters 📘 FREE Options Strategy Guide: https://tinyurl.com/bp9ms763 📱 Follow tastylive on X: https://x.com/tastyliveshow Chapters 00:00 A new big-tech index, MGTN 00:14 The ten component companies 00:28 Why the composition is fixed 00:54 How equal weighting works 01:22 The capping rules that keep it balanced 01:57 A price-return index, built in real time 02:45 How the options work, the multiplier 03:20 Cash settled, European style 03:59 The AM settlement quirk 04:44 Reading it on the platform #tastylive #cboe #mgtn #equalweight #bigtech #magseven #indexoptions #optionseducation #optionstrading #stockmarket tastylive is a real financial network, producing hours of live programming every day.
