How does an index fund rebalance their investments if (hypothetically) it's top 10% stock holdings crash? Does the fund actively sell the top 10% and buy the bottom 90%? Does it wait until market close? This market is in such a bubble that market cap weighed index funds hold a disproportionate amount of magnificent 7 stocks.

Bonus question: How much will index funds contribute to the (hypothetical) crash?
