RE: Index component weightings...

Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner...been kind of busy lately.

I ran across this for the IIX.
Some of these have complicated component weighting schemes,
It's not at all straightforward to compare these indices with each other. Different indices have different weighting schemes.
