Wall Street Analysts Are Bearish on Top Financial PicksWe think it could be more likely than not that Underperform-rated MarketAxess (MKTX) is dropped from the index next Friday. With a $7B market cap, it is currently the 3 rd smallest company in the index following a 23% decline in its share price over the past year. Furthermore, even if the release of its monthly volume report on September 5 proves positive, we believe that S&P’s decision will already be locked-in at that point. Expect a drop scenario to be slightly positive Counterintuitively, we think the stock could benefit slightly from its deletion. 400 requires a minimum market capitalization of $8B, MKTX would be demoted down to the S&P SmallCap 600 where it will be among the largest companies (31 st by market cap) and therefore earn a higher weighting.
