"Covered listings" counts companies in the Finance Foundation dataset, not the venue's full listing count, and "covered listed value" sums the computed market caps of those companies (close 2026-08-28) — a sum of estimates over a hand-picked set, not the venue's listed market capitalisation. The comparison is of our covered set, stated plainly. MIC data from the ISO 10383 registry, operator LEIs from GLEIF, session times compiled from each venue's published calendar. seed-0.7 · marketcap-1 · 2026-08-30 · sources.
