Newmont’s Upcoming (March 2024) ASX Selldown
- As warned in Newcrest-Newmont Merger: Fancy Index Shenanigans in October, the merger construct meant flowfront, index flowback, then later index flowback.
- We are now between the second and third events. The data on the third is there, but it won’t be obvious to everyone.
- There should be a large, not publicly announced, downweight on Newmont (NEM AU) in the March 2024 index review for the major local indices.
