Ranked: 2025’s 10 Largest S&P 500 Stocks

When you invest in the S&P 500, you’re gaining exposure to the 500 biggest publicly traded companies in the U.S.—but not equally. Nearly 40% of your investment is concentrated in just 10 companies. So, who’s at the top in 2025?

This graphic, sponsored by Tema, uses the latest data from SlickCharts to show the weights of the 10 largest S&P 500 stocks in 2025.

The Tech Titans Driving the Index

The biggest names in tech continue to dominate the S&P 500. Alphabet leads the pack with a 7.64% weighting, followed closely by Microsoft at 6.19%. Nvidia, which has surged on the back of AI-related demand, now commands a 5.96% share of the index.

Rank Company Weight (%)
1 Alphabet 7.64
2 Microsoft 6.19
3 Nvidia 5.96
4 Apple 5.42
5 Amazon 3.95
6 Meta 2.93
7 Tesla 2.11
8 Broadcom 2.01
9 Berkshire Hathaway 1.98
10 Walmart 1.42
Other 60.39

Rounding out the top five are Apple (5.42%) and Amazon (3.95%). This shows just how concentrated the index has become in a handful of mega-cap tech companies.

A Smarter Way to Diversify

This high concentration level means that investors betting on the S&P 500 are heavily exposed to just a few companies, mainly in tech.

While these stocks have driven much of the market’s recent gains, they also have higher volatility. Sharp price swings—especially in tech—could create anxiety for investors, even with a strong long-term outlook. That anxiety can manifest in a phenomenon called “panic selling.”

A more balanced investment approach could help smooth out those bumps, offering greater diversification and peace of mind.

The Tema S&P 500 Historical Weight ETF (DSPY) mirrors the S&P 500 while adjusting company weights to reflect their 35-year historical average levels. This strategy aims to reduce today’s high concentration risk and provide investors with a more balanced approach to investing in the S&P 500.

Disclosure

Carefully consider the Fund’s investment objectives, risk factors, charges and expenses before investing. This and additional information can be found in the Fund’s prospectus or summary prospectus, which may be obtained by visiting www.temaetfs.com. Read the prospectus carefully before investing. Investors in the Fund should be willing to accept a high degree of volatility in the price of the Fund’s shares and the possibility of significant losses. An investment in the Fund involves a substantial degree of risk. Therefore, you should carefully consider the following risks before investing in the Fund.

Risk Information

Investing involves risk including possible loss of principal. There is no guarantee the adviser’s investment strategy will be successful.

Large-Capitalization

Returns on investments in securities of large companies could trail the returns on investments in securities of smaller and mid-sized companies. The securities of large-capitalization companies may also be relatively mature compared to smaller companies and therefore subject to slower growth during times of economic expansion. Large-capitalization companies may also be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges, such as changes in technology and consumer tastes.

Calculation Methodology Risk

The Adviser relies on various sources of information to “weight-adjust” the S&P 500, including information that may be based on assumptions and estimates. Neither the Fund nor the Adviser can offer assurances that the calculation methodology or sources of information will provide accurate “weight-adjusted” S&P 500. Errors in the S&P 500 data, S&P 500 computations or the construction of the S&P 500 in accordance with its methodology, and errors in the process of “weight-adjusting” the S&P 500 may occur from time to time and may not be identified and corrected by the Index Provider or the Adviser for a period of time or at all, which may have an adverse impact on the Fund and its shareholders. “Standard & Poor’s,” “S&P”, and “S&P 500” are trademarks of Standard & Poor’s Financial Services, LLC and have been licensed for use by Tema ETFs LLC (“Tema”).
