Change in weight from the magnificent seven will be distributed to other stocks in the index.  Here are the top beneficiaries:
Broadcom Inc (NASDAQ:AVGO) goes up from 2.36% to 3.00%.
PepsiCo, Inc (NASDAQ:PEP) goes up from 1.65% to 2.10%.

Cisco Systems Inc (NASDAQ:CSCO) goes up from 1.34% to 1.70%.
Netflix Inc (NASDAQ:NFLX) goes up from 1.26% to 1.60%.
In theory, on the surface it seems that there should be selling in the magnificent seven stocks, but there are counterpoints.
As popular as Nasdaq 100 is, there is relatively little long term money tied to Nasdaq 100.  Most long term money is tied to S&P 500. SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:SPY) is the most popular S&P 500 ETF.
QQQ is the second most liquid ETF, trading about $13B each day. However, money in QQQ tends to be short term.
The Wall Street consensus is that investors should buy the magnificent seven stocks on any dip caused by rebalancing.
Lately, investors have been front running events on the buy side.
Investors are lined up to quickly buy even the slightest dip in the magnificent seven stocks.
In addition to the special rebalancing, the waters are muddied by $2.4T of options expiration.
Options expiration appears to be to the upside. There appears to be buying pressure in the magnificent seven stocks arising from options expiration. This counters the selling pressure in the magnificent seven from rebalancing.
Prudent investors need to keep in mind that market mechanics have mostly taken over, and a majority of the rise in the stock market lately has been due to market mechanics. Investors can gain an edge by understanding market mechanics. There are several podcasts on market mechanics in Arora Ambassador Club.
In the early trade, investors are buying TSLA and NFLX to take advantage of yesterday’s drop in these two stocks on earnings.
American Express Company (NYSE:AXP) stock is being sold on earnings. AXP is a component of the Dow Jones Industrial Average.
As an actionable item, the sum total of the foregoing is in the protection band, which strikes the optimum balance between various crosscurrents.

Protection Band And What To Do Now
It is important for investors to look ahead and not in the rearview mirror.
Consider continuing to hold good, very long term, existing positions. Based on individual risk preference, consider holding 🔒 in cash or Treasury bills or allocated to short-term tactical trades; and short to medium-term hedges of 🔒, and short term hedges of 🔒. This is a good way to protect yourself and participate in the upside at the same time. To see the locked content, please click here to start a free trial.
You can determine your protection bands by adding cash to hedges. The high band of the protection is appropriate for those who are older or conservative. The low band of the protection is appropriate for those who are younger or aggressive. If you do not hedge, the total cash level should be more than stated above but significantly less than cash plus hedges.
It is worth reminding that you cannot take advantage of new upcoming opportunities if you are not holding enough cash. When adjusting hedge levels, consider adjusting partial stop quantities for stock positions (non ETF); consider using wider stops on remaining quantities and also allowing more room for high beta stocks.  High beta stocks are the ones that move more than the market.
