Summary

These figures are a backtest: the index went live on November 1, 2026, and earlier values apply the same rules to the market data of the time.

The equal-weight C100-EW fell 30.5%, so the larger constituents did better than the average constituent.

At the rebalance on March 3, 2025, weights were reset to target with one-way turnover of 4.3%. Membership is reviewed quarterly, so no assets were added or removed.
