re: Russell , it will be interesting to see ....

.... what transpires with volume/PPS between now and the actual Reconstitution date later this month. I'll post a recap of what happened in previous years after adding the new info to a graphic.

Also -- I don't see the actual min. mkt. cap. noted on the Russell site as of yet and in truth it's only interesting from the standpoint of seeing which 'predictor' was closest. (I certainly wasn't!! lol)

I sent an email to Russell asking when that info will be available , will post when I get a reply.

Meanwhile ... the important thing ... one would think there might be at least a little buying excitement today! Good luck to all!

RUSSELL MARKET CAP. RANGES OUT NOW

$167,000,000 in Market Capitalization was the minimum TIV had to be above.

EXCERPTED:

Market Capitalization Ranges 
 Russell U.S. Equity Indexes 
  
 Index membership and rankings are determined using total market capitalizations 
 as of May 30, 2008. 
  
   	Market Capitalization (in millions) 
   	 
 Securities 	Hi 	         Lo 	 
  
 U.S. Indexes 
 Russell 3000® 	$468,981 	$167 	 
 Russell 1000® 	$468,981 	$1,363 
 Russell 2000® 	$2,751 	        $167 
 Russell 2500™ 	$6,819 	        $167

The market capitalization ranges in the above table reflect the market capitalization of existing members grandfathered into the index for which they are current members (often referred to as banding). New entries to the Russell indexes, such as IPOs or companies who have grown large enough for inclusion, are subject to the following market capitalization ranges to determine membership in the various capitalization indexes (in millions): Russell Top 200 ($468,981 - $16,769), Russell 1000 ($468,981 - $2,451), Russell Midcap ($16,769 - $2,451) and the Russell 2000 ($2,451 - $167).

Minimum Market Capitalization Estimates for 2008 & TIV/Russell 'Actual'

$185.88MM -- jonesie
$171.63MM -- TIV Actual
$171.00MM -- ITG
$167.00MM -- ACTUAL RUSSELL MIN. MKT. CAP FOR R2000/R3000
$165.00MM -- Melissa Roberts
$165.00MM -- JPMorgan

Melissa Roberts' and JPMorgan's estimates were the closest.

I was the farthest away LOL.

Hard to believe the min. mkt. cap. required to be in the Russell 2000/3000 tanked 36% year-over-year .... but it did!
