S&P/TSX Composite Index 1960–2012

The S&P/TSX Composite Index is an index of the stock (equity) prices of the largest companies on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) as measured by market capitalization. The Toronto Stock Exchange listed companies in this index account for about 70% of market capitalization for all Canadian-based companies listed on the TSX.[citation needed] It replaces the earlier TSE 300 index.
