AEM, Top Glove enter SGX Next 50 as four stocks exit

SingPost, Digital Core REIT, Wee Hur, and China Sunsine leave the index.

AEM Holdings, Top Glove Corporation, UI Boustead REIT, and PC Partner Group will be added to the iEdge Singapore Next 50 Index following its June 2026 quarterly review.

They will replace Singapore Post, Digital Core REIT, Wee Hur Holdings, and China Sunsine Chemical Holdings, which remained eligible for inclusion but were displaced by the four firms with higher market capitalisation, SGX said.

The changes will take effect from 22 June.

The index covers the 50 largest and most traded SGX Mainboard stocks outside the top 30 by market value.

UI Boustead REIT will join four other Next 50 constituents that were listed over the past year, namely Yangzijiang Maritime Development, Centurion Accommodation REIT, NTT DC REIT, and UltraGreen.ai.

The remaining 45 constituents recorded a combined average daily traded value of S$298m in the year to 9 June, up from S$121m in the same period in 2025.

SGX said technology will have a larger share in the liquidity-weighted version of the index based on indicative weights as of 29 May.

The sector’s weight in the Next 50 Liquidity Weighted Index will rise to 26.2%, compared with 15.8% in the standard Next 50 Index, it added.

The index posted a total return of 12.3% from January to May 2026.

S-REITs will account for 29.7% of the liquidity-weighted index, compared with 35.9% in the standard index.

Telecommunications and utilities will also have smaller weights, falling to 2.9% and 1.9%, respectively, from 6.0% and 4.5%.
