Thanks Wags.

 

They were supposed to post before 18:00 ET last night, and didn't. Anyone know what happened?

 

Index weighting change from outstanding shares to the public float. The list of constituents is shown below in Adobe PDF Format.

That's just the changes to the float factors of a couple of companies.

Apparently, they only post the actual weightings of all the components that will be used for the next quarter on their Index Alert paid service, not the public news release section

Of course, once they're in use, they can be gotten from the CBOE's index mini-sites, e.g. http://www.cboe.com/products/snp500.aspx .

 

WMT, MSFT stood to lose the most ground and XOM, C to gain the most in the second stage of the float adjustment. Any of you guys make a fortune over the last few days?
