Kalshi offers exposure to large U.S. technology and growth companies through Kalshi's US Tech 100 index perpetual future. The underlying index is calculated by MerQube (https://merqube.com/indices/MQBUSTQT), which has historically shown 99%+ daily-return correlation with major U.S. technology benchmarks, including the Nasdaq-100®. It's a total return index, which means dividends are reinvested back into the index.

The index is made up of 100 large non-financial companies, many of them in technology. It is weighted by market capitalization, so the biggest companies like Nvidia, Meta and Google move the price much more than smaller ones. Because the index is concentrated in fewer companies and sectors than a broad 500-company index, it can move more sharply in either direction.

What to watch: Earnings from the largest tech companies, spending on AI and data centers, Federal Reserve interest-rate decisions, and monthly inflation reports.

FAQs

Does the market end?

No. Perps have no expiration date, so you can hold a position as long as you want and close it any time the market is open.

What is leverage?

Leverage lets you control a larger position with less money upfront. It magnifies both gains and losses relative to what you put in.

What is liquidation?

If the asset price moves against you and your margin falls below the required minimum, Kalshi will close your position to prevent further losses. In fast-moving markets, or when a market reopens after a closure, prices can move quickly, and you may lose some or all of your margin.

What is the funding rate?

Funding keeps the perp price close to the price of the underlying asset. These payments encourage trades that pull the two prices back together, and are paid directly between traders. Funding is capped at 2% of your position value per funding period.

How are perps different from other financial tools?

1. Profit whether you think the price will rise or fall. Go long or short with equal ease.2. No expiration. Unlike predictions and options, perps don’t have an end date. Hold for five days or five months. Funding payments apply while you hold.3. Trade with leverage. Control a bigger position with less upfront cash, with bigger gains and bigger losses.

Is Kalshi Invest regulated?

Yes. Kalshi Invest markets are CFTC-approved true perpetual futures. Kalshi is the first company in US history to offer regulated perpetual futures to American traders.
