Abstract: | The 2000 implementation of float-capitalization index weights in the Dow Jones STOXXsm indices changes the demand for large European stocks. In this paper, the authors test for imperfect-substitution and price-pressure effects due to the change in the demand for stocks. Contrary to the fundamentals assumption of perfectly elastic demand curves in asset pricing theories, the findings suggest that a price pressure effect is not a plausible explanation. |
