Direct Answer
The Value Line Geometric Composite Index is a rule-based measurement of approximately 1,700 U.S. equities tracked by Value Line, using a geometric average weighting, maintained by Value Line. Like every index it owns nothing: it is a number produced by applying a published weighting formula to a selected list of securities, revised on a schedule the provider sets.
What this index covers
The Value Line Geometric Composite Index covers approximately 1,700 U.S. equities tracked by Value Line, using a geometric average weighting. Value Line defines which securities are eligible, how they are selected from that pool, and how much each one contributes to the published number.
The methodology document, published by Value Line, sets the rules for inclusion and removal. Corporate actions, index reviews, and eligibility changes all move the constituent list on the timetable the provider specifies.
