Tadawul explains the methodology of calculating TASI and sectors’ indices

18/12/2014 Argaam

Saudi Stock Exchange (Tadawul) said that calculating the general market index (TASI) and sectors’ indices relies on the price of the last deal of more than SAR 15000.
 

The calculation is performed through multiplying the index of the previous day times the change ratio in the market value of free shares of the companies included in that index.


Tadawul added that the indices are not subject to fluctuation limits unlike the shares which are subject to a fluctuation limit based on the official closing price (price rate).


According to Argaam; three sectors’ indices rose more than 10% on Thursday.
