June Russell Reconstitution Concludes with Record $553.9 Billion Traded at the Close

  

June 26, 2026 – Global index provider FTSE Russell celebrated the conclusion of the June 2026 Russell Reconstitution at the close of today’s US markets, setting a new record for dollars traded across both Nasdaq and NYSE as Nvidia (NVDA) officially takes the top spot as the largest company in the Russell 3000 and large cap Russell 1000 Indexes.

The Russell Reconstitution rebalances the entire Russell US Indexes family to maintain an accurate representation of US equity markets and reflect the dynamic US economy. Typically culminating in one of the highest trading volume days of the year, today’s markets closed with $553.9 billion traded across Nasdaq and NYSE – $334.0 billion and $219.9 billion in US stocks traded on the Nasdaq and NYSE, respectively.

For 42 years, the Russell US Indexes have been widely used by investment managers and institutional investors for index funds and as benchmarks for active investment strategies. As of June 30, 2025, approximately $12.2 trillion in investor assets are benchmarked to or invested in products based on the Russell US Indexes.

Fiona Bassett, CEO, FTSE Russell:

“Today’s record is a powerful reflection of the trust the market places in the Russell Indexes year after year. We’re proud to celebrate this milestone with our friends at Nasdaq, highlighting our long history of collaboration. As we mark this record-breaking reconstitution, we also celebrate the conclusion of the first of two rebalancings that will occur this year as we transition back to a semi-annual process – a move that further underscores our commitment to keeping our indexes aligned with the evolving needs of the market.”   

FTSE Russell’s June 2026 Russell Reconstitution concluded at the close of the US equity markets today, June 26th, with the newly rebalanced indexes taking effect when markets open on Monday, June 29th.

The second Russell Reconstitution of 2026 will take place in December, marking the completion of the newly reinstated semi-annual rebalancing process.
