Mattson Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: MTSN), a leading supplier of
advanced process equipment used to manufacture semiconductors, is
set to join the broad-market Russell 3000® Index when Russell
Investments reconstitutes its comprehensive set of U.S. and global
equity indexes on June 25, according to a preliminary list of
additions posted June 11 on www.russell.com.
Annual reconstitution of Russell's U.S. indexes captures the
4,000 largest U.S. stocks as of the end of May, ranking them by
total market capitalization. Membership in the Russell 3000, which
remains in place for one year, means automatic inclusion in the
large-cap Russell 1000® Index or small-cap Russell 2000® Index as
well as the appropriate growth and value style indexes. Russell
determines membership for its equity indexes primarily by
objective, market-capitalization rankings and style attributes.
Russell indexes are widely used by investment managers and
institutional investors for index funds and as benchmarks for both
passive and active investment strategies. An industry-leading $3.9
trillion in assets currently are benchmarked to them. These
investment tools originated from Russell's multi-manager investment
business in the early 1980s when the company saw the need for a
more objective, market-driven set of benchmarks in order to
evaluate outside investment managers.
Total returns data for the Russell 3000 and other Russell
Indexes is available at
