About Nasdaq 100 (NDX)
The Nasdaq 100 is a market index that tracks 100 of the largest non-financial companies listed on the Nasdaq stock exchange. It is heavily weighted toward technology and growth-oriented companies.
The index is a modified market-capitalization-weighted measure of its constituents, so the largest companies carry significant weight. It represents market performance rather than a single company.
The Nasdaq 100 is commonly followed as a benchmark for large technology and growth companies and is often compared with broader indexes. Historical performance can be influenced by the earnings and valuations of large technology companies, interest rates, and shifts in growth expectations. Its concentration can make it more volatile than broader benchmarks.
This calculator uses available historical data to illustrate past returns over selected periods. It does not assess whether the index is a suitable investment, and index values cannot be purchased directly.

How to interpret Nasdaq 100 ROI

Past performance does not guarantee future results. Use Performance Snapshot to see standard periods like 1M, YTD, 1Y and 5Y.
How It Works
- Choose an investment amount and dates.
- Fetch historical prices (or enter custom prices).
