CLF transitioning from value to growth, per S&P: Standard & Poor's Announces Semi-Annual Reconstitution of Standard & Poor's/Barra Growth and Value Indices Friday December 10, 7:12 pm ET NEW YORK, Dec. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Standard & Poor's will make its semi-annual changes to the S&P 500/Barra Growth, S&P 500/Barra Value, S&P MidCap 400/Barra Growth, S&P MidCap 400/Barra Value, S&P SmallCap 600/Barra Growth and S&P SmallCap 600/Barra Value indices after the close of trading on Friday, December 17, 2004. On March 18, 2005, the S&P/Barra Growth and Value indices and their S&P parent indices will transition in their entirety to a half-float market capitalization-weighted structure... A stock's categorization as either "growth" or "value" is determined by its book-to-price ratio. Using this measure, each U.S. index is split into two mutually exclusive sets, each of which comprises roughly half of the index's total market capitalization. Each S&P/Barra Value Index contains stocks with higher book-to-price ratios, whereas each S&P/Barra Growth Index includes stocks whose book-to-price ratios are lower. Like the parent indices from which they are derived, the growth and value indices are market capitalization-weighted.
