Rebalancing
Resetting an index’s members and weights on a fixed timetable.
Between resets, each member’s weight drifts with its share price. At a reset, the index re-applies its rules: who qualifies, and how much each member counts.
The Artive Commerce Indexes reset every quarter, after the third Friday of March, June, September and December.
