MARKET-SHARE WEIGHTED INDEX


Meaning of MARKET-SHARE WEIGHTED INDEX in English

An index where the impact of a stock price change depends upon the market-share that stock controls. For example, a stock with a large market share, such as IBM with over 600 million shares outstanding, would have a greater impact on a market-share weighted index than a stock with a small market-share, such as Foster Wheeler, with approximately 34 million shares outstanding.
