Direct Answer
The All Ordinaries is a rule-based measurement of broad australian equity benchmark, maintained by ASX. Like every index it owns nothing: it is a number produced by applying a published weighting formula to a selected list of companies, revised on a schedule the provider sets.
What this index covers
The All Ordinaries covers broad australian equity benchmark, within the Australia market. ASX defines which securities are eligible, how they are selected from that pool, and how much each one contributes to the published number.
The index name does not state a fixed company count, so the number of constituents follows the eligibility rules rather than a target.
How constituents are weighted
Swoopr has not verified the weighting method for this index against ASX's current methodology document, so none is stated here rather than guessed. The provider link below is authoritative.
Current All Ordinaries constituents
ASX publishes and licenses the All Ordinaries constituent list. Swoopr does not republish it here. The provider's own page is the authoritative source for current membership and weights.
