The PSEi is the main index of the Philippine Stock Exchange. It is composed of a fixed basket of 30 companies, whose selection is based on a specific set of criteria. The PSEi measures the relative changes in the free float-adjusted market capitalization of the 30 largest and most active common stocks listed at the PSE. By gauging changes in the stock prices of select listed companies, the PSEi was pegged at 1,022.045 points. This was reckoned according to the close of the index on February 28, 1990, the PSE’s base date.
The name PSEi was adopted by the Exchange in April 2006. In the past, it was formerly known as PHISIX or even the PSE Composite Index. Here are the thirty index issues of the Philippine Stock Exchange Index, with their free float level, and market capitalization as of January 4, 2013, according to the PSE website. Here, we arrange it according to weighting based on its last trading price of the aforementioned date.
