Uranium Energy Corp To Be Added to Russell 2000 Index and Russell 3000 Index
June 17, 2009
AUSTIN TX -- Uranium Energy Corp (NYSE-AMEX: UEC, “the Company"), a US-based resource company with the objective of near-term uranium production, is pleased to announce that the Company is listed as a preliminary addition to the Russell 2000 Index and the Russell 3000 Index as published on June 12 by Russell Investment Group. Russell’s final membership lists will be published after market close on Friday, June 26.
Annual reconstitution of the 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 appropriate growth and sector indexes.
Russell indexes are widely used by investment managers and institutional investors for index funds and as benchmarks for both passive and active investment strategies. 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 performance of investment managers.
