(Reuters) - Shares of Apple, Microsoft and other heavyweight companies dipped on Monday after Nasdaq Inc said it would rebalance its Nasdaq 100 index to address the benchmark's "overconcentration."

Apple dropped 1.1%, leaving its market capitalization at $2.967 trillion. It closed above the $3 trillion threshold for the first time on June 30. Alphabet and Amazon fell over 2%, while Microsoft and Tesla each slid more than 1%.
