	Market capitalization - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Market capitalization, often abbreviated to market cap, is a measurement of corporate size that refers to the current stock price times the number of outstanding shares.
		The term capitalization is sometimes used as a synonym of market capitalization; more often, it denotes the total amount of funds used to finance a firm's balance sheet and is calculated as market capitalization plus debt (book or market value) plus preferred stock.
		The amount of shares available on the open market, the "free float", is sometimes less than the total number of shares because a portion of the outstanding shares may be held by "insiders," and/or by the company as treasury stock.

		The adjustments are required when there are changes in capitalisation (market value) of the constituents resulting from corporate actions, or from changes in the constituents of the SEM-7.
		Market capitalisation (M) is the sum of the market value of all shares included in theSEM-7.

	Market capitalisation
		That value is known as market capitalisation and is simply the number of shares in issue multiplied by the market price per share.
		If not all of the company shares are available to the public (free float or free capital) then the market capitalisation figure is adjusted upward to take account of this.
		But if these shares issued to the public comprise just half its total shares then the true market capitalisation is £1.4 billion.

	Market out of sync with economy
		As much as 69.15 per cent of the Sensex's market capitalisation is on account of manufacturing companies, while the rest of the companies are from the services sector.
		In fact, since the GDP segment includes insurance, real estate and business services as well, while the market capitalisation is only for the finance, it's clear that the finance sector has a larger weight in market capitalisation than in the GDP.
		Clearly, the market is slowly but surely correcting the distribution of its market capitalisation to reflect the underlying economic reality.
