S&P/​​​​ASX 200 Index Rebalance (Dec 2023): There Is Positioning but Probably Not Enough

By Brian Freitas

  • There are 3 changes for the S&P/ASX 200 (AS51 INDEX) that will be implemented at the close on 15 December. One name is a relative surprise.
  • There will be 8-15 days of ADV to buy on the inclusions and there will be 12-18 days of ADV to sell on the deletions.
  • Cumulative excess volume and changes in short interest indicate there will be positioning in most stocks. But it may not yet be enough to cover the passive trade.
