The Number of TOPIX Components Should Be More Reduced to Raise the Quality of Engagement, Though
- The cost is somewhat reduced for the user because of the higher weighting of more liquid stocks. Meanwhile, selling pressure is inevitable for less liquid companies whose weights are reduced.
- Even if the number of stocks decreases, 1,200 stocks isn’t small number. Also, even though the market capitalization of the components has increased, approximately 73 billion yen isn’t sufficiently liquid.
- With calls for increased engagement, the number of issues remains too large for domestic asset managers, where passive funds account for a high percentage of AUM.
