Business Wire
As leading CEOs from many long-established companies convene
today for the second-annual NYSE Century Club summit at the New York Stock Exchange, the
year-old namesake index, which measures the performance of 348
companies that have been in business for at least 100 years, has
gained 14.7% year-to-date and has a one-year performance of
25%.
Launched in July 2012, the NYSE Century IndexSM outperformed
other broad-based indices such as the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100,
with each returning 12.6% and 9.3% year-to-date and 17.6% and 10.8%
over one year, respectively.
“The performance of the NYSE Century Index illustrates the
leadership, stability and the overall sound business execution of
our Century Club community during times of economic uncertainty,”
said Duncan Niederauer, Chief Executive Officer, NYSE Euronext.
“The NYSE Century Index serves as a strong and insightful baseline
indicator of the economic health and progress of the American
economy and overall market.”
The NYSE Century Club is comprised of NYSE and NYSE MKT-listed
companies that have demonstrated longevity and contributed to
economic and social progress for more than 100 years. The NYSE
Century Club IndexSM measures the performance of U.S. domiciled
companies that have a 100 year history, are publicly traded and
have a market capitalization of at least $1 billion. Based upon a
set of criteria that assesses a company's size and longevity, the
index is rebalanced effective for the first business day of each
year and provides exposure to a diverse group of companies from all
major sectors.
To further commemorate the anniversary, today CEOs from several
NYSE and NYSE MKT-listed companies will participate in two forums
on Resilience and Innovation and Lessons of Legacies and ring the
NYSE Closing Bell.
