Insights

Cboe's new MGTEN index products target retail and institutional demand for simplified exposure to top tech stocks with flexible trading options.

Cboe's planned launch of futures and options on the new Magnificent 10 Index represents a significant product innovation targeting the growing appetite for derivatives exposure to high-growth tech stocks. The equal-weighted index includes the Magnificent 7 stocks plus AMD, Broadcom, and Palantir, creating a focused instrument for trading the AI and tech growth narrative through a single product rather than managing ten separate positions.

The product design shows careful attention to current market trends, particularly the explosive growth in zero-days-to-expiry (0DTE) options trading. By offering weekly P.M.-settled options with daily expirations, Cboe is directly addressing the surging retail demand for short-term trading vehicles. The cash-settled, European-style structure eliminates assignment risk and physical delivery concerns that often complicate options strategies.

From a market structure perspective, the nearly 24x5 trading availability acknowledges the increasingly global nature of markets and demand for extended-hours risk management capabilities. The planned clearing through OCC with potential margin offsets demonstrates attention to capital efficiency considerations that matter significantly to both retail and institutional traders.

This launch continues Cboe's strategic expansion of its index-based derivatives offerings, positioning the exchange to capture additional trading volume in the high-volatility tech sector while providing market participants with more precise tools for expressing directional views and managing concentration risk in these influential stocks.

  • New Cboe Magnificent 10 Index (MGTEN Index) will measure a fixed set of actively traded U.S.-listed stocks
  • Planned cash-settled MGTEN Index options to allow for nearly 24x5 and shorter-dated options trading
  • Launch is latest push by Cboe to meet robust retail investor appetite for derivatives

CHICAGO, Sept. 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Cboe Global Markets, Inc. (Cboe: CBOE), the world's leading derivatives and securities exchange network, today announced plans to launch futures and options on the new Cboe Magnificent 10 Index, subject to regulatory review. The new product suite will offer investors a way to gain targeted exposure to several of the most actively traded AI technology-focused stocks through cash-settled index futures and options.

The Cboe Magnificent 10 Index, launching soon, is a thematic, equal-weighted benchmark designed to measure the price return of 10 U.S.-listed large-cap/articles/market-capitalization-explained" title="Read: What Is Market Capitalization and How It Is Calculated" class="article-link" rel="noopener">large-cap stocks of technology and growth-orientated companies. The current constituents include all the Magnificent 7 stocks (Alphabet, Apple, Amazon, Meta, Microsoft, Nvidia, and Tesla), in addition to Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), Broadcom, and Palantir. The value of the MGTEN Index will be available on the Cboe Global Indices Feed via the Cboe Global Indices Channel. Cboe intends to list futures and options on the Cboe Magnificent 10 Index that will trade on a nearly 24x5 basis, providing a comprehensive suite of tools for market participants seeking to manage risk, enhance yield, and express their views on the most dynamic segment of the U.S. equity landscape.

"Both institutional and retail traders are increasingly looking for smarter ways to gain exposure to the most influential, market-moving stocks – along with tools to manage their positions and hedge risk more precisely, both intraday and around the clock," said Cathy Clay, Global Head of Derivatives at Cboe, at the HOOD Summit in Las Vegas. "With our new MGTEN Index futures and options, we're bringing the best of Cboe's indexing and derivatives expertise to meet this demand. These products deliver curated exposure to a select group of high-impact stocks in a single solution – rather than managing 10 separate positions – while helping to reduce the concentration risk that may come with trading individual stocks. In particular, as market participants increasingly utilize cash-settled index options for short-dated strategies, we believe MGTEN options will similarly be a powerful tool for implementing daily trading strategies around these in-demand stocks."

MGTEN options will be cash-settled and European-style, eliminating physical delivery and the potential for early exercise, differentiating these from options on the stock components. Along with the standard monthly A.M.-settled expirations, Cboe plans to list weekly P.M.-settled options with expiries on each trading day, offering investors across the globe the ability to trade zero-days-to-expiry (0DTE) options on the index. 0DTE trading has grown significantly in recent years as investors seek the utility short-dated options can provide, including the ability to tactically hedge, more granularly manage intraday risk, and implement daily yield-generating strategies. MGTEN options will be listed and traded on Cboe Exchange, Inc. (Cboe Options).

The planned cash-settled MGTEN futures will be listed and traded on Cboe Futures Exchange (CFE). MGTEN futures will offer a capital-efficient way to gain exposure to the most influential tech stocks through a single tradable product. Futures provide a way to diversify portfolios with inherent leverage, empowering investors to take larger positions with smaller upfront capital, while offering the precise ability to hedge, speculate, or enter a short position. Both the MGTEN Index futures and options will be cleared by the Options Clearing Corporation (OCC), potentially allowing for margin offsets. 

Cboe aims to launch the MGTEN Index monthly options and futures in the fourth quarter of 2025, with the weekly P.M.-expiring options to begin trading in the first quarter of 2026, all subject to regulatory review. At launch, MGTEN Index futures and options trading will be available during regular trading hours and Cboe plans to extend availability through its Global Trading Hours at a later date.
