The iShares MSCI International Developed Momentum Factor ETF (the “Fund”) is an open-end management investment company. The Fund seeks to track the investment results of an index that measures the performance of international developed large- and mid-capitalization stocks exhibiting relatively higher momentum characteristics, as represented by the MSCI World ex USA Momentum Index (the “Index”). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities included in the Index that collectively has an investment profile similar to the Index. As of Jul 31 2015, the Fund's total assets were $5,509,282 and the Fund's investment portfolio was valued at $5,484,055. We show 1 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our IMTM shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute IMTM market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing IMTM market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing IMTM's market cap history versus its peers.
Many "beginner" or "novice" investors will look at one stock trading at a price of $10 per share and another trading at
a price of $20 per share and think the latter company is worth twice as much. Of course, that is a completely meaningless comparison without also knowing how many shares outstanding there are for each of the two companies,
and then calculating their respective market caps. Comparing the share price of IMTM versus a peer is one thing; comparing
IMTM market cap versus a peer is a completely different story.
Furthermore, via fluctuation both in per-share price and in the number of shares outstanding (via issuance of new shares over time, the repurchase of existing shares),
the market cap for a company like IMTM can fluctuate over the course of history.
