This was brought to mind by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/markets\/us\/huge-tech-etf-set-buy-10-billion-nvidia-shares-2024-06-18\/\">recent reports of a huge edge effect<\/a> (bolding added to highlight cause of edge effect):<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The $72.34 billion Technology Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLK.P), managed by State Street Global Advisors, will buy some $10 billion shares of Nvidia while slashing its exposure to Apple, Matthew Bartolini, head of SPDR Americas research at State Street confirmed.<\/p>\n<p>The changes are being made so the fund can bring its holdings inline with pending changes to the S&#038;P Dow Jones Technology Select Sector index, which it tracks. The reshuffle would leave Microsoft (MSFT.O) and Nvidia sharing the top spot in both the fund and the index, with Apple becoming the runner-up, according to Bartolini.<\/p>\n<p>On Tuesday, chipmaker Nvidia became the world\u2019s most valuable company as its market value hit $3.33 trillion, surpassing that of Microsoft (MSFT.O).<\/p>\n<p>Until now, the technology ETF had 22.5% of its assets invested in Microsoft, 21% in Apple, and only 6% in Nvidia, according to Jay Woods, chief global strategist at Freedom Capital Markets. That caused the fund to underperform its benchmark as Nvidia\u2019s shares rose 173% this year.<\/p>\n<p>By the end of trading this Friday, when the index rebalancing takes place based on last Friday&#8217;s market cap values, Microsoft will retain its dominance within the SPDR ETF&#8217;s portfolio, with a 21% weighting. Nvidia will have a 21% weighting as well, while Apple will plunge to 4.5%.<br \/><b>&#8230;<\/b><br \/><b>Index and portfolio construction rules mean that only two of the three technology giants can be held at a full weight &#8212; 21% &#8212; in the ETF. Any other large positions can&#8217;t exceed 4.5%.<\/b> The rule, set in place in 1998 when the index was launched, caps total exposure to all stocks with a weighting of more than 5% in the broader Standard &#038; Poor&#8217;s 500 index at 50% of the portfolio.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This is just dumb and it&#8217;s going to cost investors a big pile of money as prices, naturally enough, are already reflecting the monster orders that are currently being written. But take heart, investment management fans! This completely unnecessary cost won&#8217;t be reflected in the fund&#8217;s performance against its index, because guess what? Thanks to the miracle of modern sleaziness, index providers routinely announce changes well in advance of their taking effect, so the cost is actually borne by the index vs. a &#8216;meta-index&#8217; that has rational construction rules and does not permit (some might say &#8220;encourage&#8221;) speculators and facilitators to get in front of investment vehicles. And, of course, such &#8216;meta-indices&#8217; aren&#8217;t calculated by anybody of note so the cost is never discussed.<\/p>\n<p>Also, it&#8217;s worth pointing out that if these three behemoths start jostling for position in the market-capitalization department due simply to share prices, there&#8217;s the potential for more such idiotic switches. This will be bad not only for technical reasons due to market impact of the ensuing trading, but because the practitioners will be trapped in a cycle of buy-high, sell-low, which is not usually an investment goal.<\/p>\n<p>In cheerier news, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theglobeandmail.com\/investing\/article-us-urges-britain-to-pick-a-date-for-stock-market-shake-up\/\">UK is being urged to get with the programme<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Britain should set a date for halving the time it takes to settle a stock trade &#8211; and stick with it, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Chair Gary Gensler said on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>Britain has said that UK stock markets should halve the time it takes to settle a trade on the London Stock Exchange and other platforms by the end of 2027, at the latest, to match Wall Street\u2019s move last month to complete a stock trade within one business day (T+1).<\/p>\n<p>Canada and Mexico also shifted to T+1 last month to cut risks in markets and save on trading costs.<\/p>\n<p>The European Union has said that moving from T+2 to T+1 is a matter of when, rather than if, and some industry officials want Britain and the EU to synchronize the shift given the markets are interlinked.<\/p>\n<p>Gensler told an event in London held by UK Finance, a banking industry body, that the U.S. move cut the average amount of margin required by clearing houses by 25% to 30%, equivalent to about $3.8 billion, in first two days.<br \/><b>&#8230;<\/b><br \/>The move to T+1 is seen as a precursor to same day settlement for stocks, already in place in China for A shares.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<table border='1'>\n<tr>\n<td colspan='8'><strong>HIMIPref&trade; Preferred Indices<br \/>These values reflect the December 2008 revision of the HIMIPref&trade;
