All Ordinaries (INDEXASX:XAO) price chart

All Ordinaries (INDEXASX:XAO) index methodology

The All Ordinaries (INDEXASX: AXAO) (INDEXASX: XAO) is one of two popular Australian stock market indices. The All Ords tracks the performance of 500 of the largest shares on the ASX, as measured by market capitalisation. It was established in January 1980. That compares to the ASX 200 (ASX: XJO) which tracks just 200 companies.

Important point: the All Ords & ASX 200 are skewed to the largest shares on the market (e.g. the banking and resources sectors), given the focus on market capitalisation, so it’s important to consider how well its long-term performance actually reflects your portfolio’s return.
