MCX

Munich Strategy Construction Index.

Explore the MCX.

  • The MCX is an interactive tool for understanding the performance of companies in the construction sector. It provides unique insights into the global capital markets for construction companies.
  • The index covers over 100 hand-picked manufacturers, distributors and service providers in the construction industry worldwide.
  • It includes only companies whose core business is construction. Munich Strategy has ensured that each region, segment and size is sufficiently represented in the index. Thus, the MCX is the first index to provide a real-time representation of the construction industry as a whole.

Index companies.

We have subdivided the construction industry into six segments. For each segment we have selected publicly listed companies based on the following criteria:
  • Construction is the core business
  • Relevant market capitalization over the past period
  • Each region (Europe, North America, Asia) is sufficiently represented
  • Peer group represents company size from small cap to large cap

MCX Quartalsausgaben.

Ausgabe 01: Quartal 01/2021

Die globale Bauwirtschaft erlebt nach dem Corona-Einbruch einen überdurchschnittlichen Wachstumsschub. Mit 502 Punkten  erreicht der MCX am 10. Mai 2021 einen neuen Höchststand.

Methodology.

  • The MCX starts at 100 points on January 1st, 2000, which allows insight into macro-trends and cyclicality of the construction industry.
  • Daily change is calculated by means of change in total (free float) market capitalization of all included companies.
  • The tool allows comparison between different subsets of the index such as industry segments, regions and company size. 

Our approach.

Munich Strategy is a strategy consultancy for the construction industry. We have developed the index to benchmark our clients’ performance with their peer group. Performance deltas indicate areas for action: Who outperforms the index? Who defies a downturn? What’s the impact of macro trends on segment level? What are the regional differences?
The MCX is the first tool that allows corporates and investors real-time insight into the construction industry’s status quo.
