How Index Weight Differs from Market Cap
It's important to comprehend the S&P 500 weight vs market cap. Index weight shows how each stock affects the performance of the S&P 500, whereas market capitalization ranks businesses according to their entire worth. We determine weight as a percentage by dividing the market capitalization of each individual firm by the total market capitalization of the 500 constituents. Both categories are dominated by tech corporations in 2025; Microsoft alone makes up more than 6% of the index.
