Índice Bovespa
The Bovespa Index (Portuguese: Índice Bovespa), best known as Ibovespa is the benchmark index of about 86 stocks[1] traded on the B3 (Brasil Bolsa Balcão), accounting for the majority of trading and market capitalization in the Brazilian stock market. It is a weighted measurement index.
Overview
[edit]The index is a total return index composed by a theoretical portfolio as follows:[2] Selection criteria: Being amongst the eligible stocks that account for 85% in descending order by individual tradability ratio (IN); Traded in 95% of the trading sessions; 0.1% of the value traded on the cash equity market (round lots); and must not be a penny stock. It is weighted by free float.
It is revised on a 4-month portfolio cycle in January, May, and September. On average, the components of Ibovespa represent 70% of all the stock value traded.[2]
Its index number represents the present value of a portfolio begun on 2 January 1968, with a starting value of 100 and taking into account share price increases plus the reinvestment of all dividends, subscription rights that the constant's bonus stocks received.
History and adjustments
[edit]Prior to 2014, the index was composed by a theoretical portfolio with the stocks that accounted for 80% of the volume traded in the last 12 months and that were traded at least on 80% of the trading days. It was revised quarterly, in order to keep its representativeness of the volume traded and in average the components of Ibovespa represented 70% of all the stock value traded. On 11 September 2013, BM&FBOVESPA announced the changes to the Ibovespa methodology, which would be implemented in a two-phased approach by May 2014.
The principal changes to the index methodology included:[2]
- Weighting function – previously a liquidity-driven weighting, starting from January 2014, weighting is now based on market value attributable to a constituent’s free float, with a liquidity cap (Tradability Ratio) set at twice the hypothetical weight of the constituent
- The Tradability Ratio (Índice de Negociabilidade, or IN) is now calculated to take into account 1/3 of a component’s share of the overall number of trades and 2/3 of the component’s share of the overall value traded on the cash equity market;
- The Tradability Ratio cut-off threshold for a stock to qualify for inclusion in the index has been raised from 80% to 85%
- The 'active trading' requirement, as measured based on number of trading sessions, has been raised from 80% to 95%
- In flotations of issuers listed over the course of the two previous portfolio cycles, the new stocks are now accepted for early index membership
- Stocks that qualify as penny stocks are now ineligible for inclusion in the index
- Stocks which at any rebalancing classify by individual Tradability Ratio over a certain period, collectively account for over ninety percent (90%) of the sum total of such metric, are now removed from the index
- The criteria pursuant to which a constituent stock which is suspended from trading retains index membership or is removed from the index have been made clear
- A limit was introduced in terms of the maximum relative weight of a company’s total contribution to the index.
Adjustments
[edit]The index has been adjusted as follows, most of the adjustments occurred during the time Brazil experienced high rates of inflation during the 1980s and early 1990s:
- division by 100, on 3 October 1983
- division by 10, on 2 December 1985
- division by 10, on 29 August 1988
- division by 10, on 14 April 1989
- division by 10, on 12 January 1990
- division by 10, on 28 May 1991
- division by 10, on 21 January 1992
- division by 10, on 26 January 1993
- division by 10, on 27 August 1993
- division by 10, on 10 February 1994
- division by 10, on 3 March 1997
