    Inside the Russell Reconstitution: Getting Tactical on Volatility, Options and Trading Opportunities

    In this episode, we go inside the Russell Reconstitution, one of the most significant events in the equity markets, with insights from Catherine Yoshimoto of FTSE Russell and Rick Rosenthal of Cboe. The conversation explores the mechanics behind the Russell 1000 and Russell 2000, the impact of volatility, and how traders—both institutional and retail—can leverage options strategies such as covered calls, vertical spreads, and zero-DTE options during this period. With retail participation growing rapidly and sector leadership shifting from tech to healthcare, industrials, and consumer discretionary, this year's reconstitution reflects the dynamic nature of U.S. equity markets.   ➖ Learn more about the Russell Reconstitution: https://www.lseg.com/en/ftse-russell/russell-reconstitution   Download the latest Russell 2000 Quarterly Chartbook: https://www.lseg.com/en/ftse-russell/research/russell-2000-index-quarterly-chartbook-april-2025   Disclaimer: The content here is for informational purposes only and should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, financial or investment advice.
