I'm pondering this, since in the news right now is discussion of M&S's relegation from the FTSE100, and also I'm quite interested in watching (or at least an awareness of) companies which are about to be promoted.
What I've been looking for is a listing of the various LSE equity markets, (FTSE100, FTSE250, FTSE350, AIM etc.) and what (if any) is the entry level of market capitalisation that a firm must have prior to entry (or promotion) to that particular market.
e.g. does a firm require a capitalisation of 2 billion+ GBP to be in the FTSE100?
I just found this page
http://www.ftse.com/products/indices/uk
(and half way down there is a link to "factsheets" which if you click "see all" then leads to
http://www.ftse.com/Analytics/factsheets/Home/Search)
however I just clicked the FTSE 100 index link (on the fact sheet listing on the first link I referred to) and that took me to this pdf
http://www.ftse.com/Analytics/Factsheet ... a69e28.pdf
at the bottom of the pdf there is a table (called "Index characteristics" ), which I believe is listing it's figures in terms of GBPm, and it states
Smallest 2,219
So does that means the mark cap of the smallest valued firm in the FTSE 100 is currently 2.2B?
Anyone know of a simpler resource for describing LSE traded equity markets in terms of each constituents Market Cap.?
many thanks
