As investors feel market movements, the world’s global exchanges have seen unprecedented declines in share value in recent months.
The FTSE Mondo Visione Exchanges Index felt the downward pressure of the equities market with a 22.2 per cent decrease in Q3 2011 against a 2.3 per cent decrease in Q2 2011.
While all regions are seeing volatility in share prices, it is European exchanges which have experienced the biggest decline in performance for Q3 2011 against Q3 2010.
This week, CBOE Holdings, Inc (NASDAQ: CBOE) joins the FTSE Mondo Visione Index which now tracks all the major publicly listed exchanges.
Commenting on the Index which closed at 19,184.86 on 30 September 2011, Herbie Skeete, Managing Director, Mondo Visione and Co-founder of the Index said:
“September turned out to be the cruellest of months for constituents of the FTSE Mondo Visione Exchanges Index with only one constituent in positive territory – just - and a whopping fall of 12.4 per cent in the Index.
These falls must be viewed against the backdrop of the financial crisis. In general the volumes in September 2011 declined in comparison to the previous month although year on year volumes largely grew.”
The Index*, which aims to reflect market sentiment and is a key indicator of the exchanges’ performance, saw a 12.4 per cent decrease in September 2011.
The FTSE Mondo Visione Exchanges Index best performer by capital returns in US dollars was IntercontinentalExchange with a 0.3 per cent increase in share price from 31 August to 30 September 2011. The next best performer was NASDAQ OMX with a 2.3 per cent decrease over the same period.
The FTSE Mondo Visione Exchanges Index worst performer by capital returns in US dollars was Greece’s Hellenic Exchanges SA with a 33.7 per cent decrease in share price from 31 August to 30 September 2011. This was followed by Poland’s Warsaw Stock Exchange with a 21.5 per cent decline over the same period.
