I don't think the Russell 1000 is a good thing short term.
The Russell 2k is a more popular index - if MVL is weighted smaller in the 1000 than the 2000 it will result in net selling by the funds that follow it.

Of course as MVL gets bigger and bigger it will be moving up to the mid-cap indices so in the end it's a good thing.

I think the Artisan thing , if they actually bid on them, really depends on how they finance it. If they do a secondary to raise funds then you have dilution. They could borrow and start inreasing their debt, but then again rates are really low. They also get to reap money from non MVL properties as I doubt they'd have the studio only putting out MVL projects. Bigger risk but bigger reward.

Of course they decided against that when getting rid of Toy Biz, but the profits on movies blow away the profits on a great toy line.
