The list of new TOPIX constituents and the overall picture of additions and deletions will become clear. The number of constituents is expected to decline substantially, and there also appears likely to be movement in how issues from markets previously considered outside the scope are handled.
The Nihon Keizai Shimbun has reported on the overall picture of the new composition of the Tokyo Stock Price Index (TOPIX). The new TOPIX is expected to present a list of constituents and explain the full details of the issues to be added and removed.
The article points out that the number of constituents is expected to decline substantially and reports the view that the criteria for additions and deletions may be revised as the constituents are reorganised.
It also discusses how issues listed on the TSE Standard Market and other TSE market segments, which had not previously been included, will be positioned in this round of changes, leaving the market awaiting further updates.
