Joining Bupa in the mid-cap basket are a wave of real estate and development players, including Jabal Omar Development, Makkah Construction, Taiba Investments, and Umm Al Qura for Development and Construction. Umm Al Qura\u2019s entry is notable as it represents one of Tadawul's recent IPOs graduating quickly into the mid-cap universe.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>At the small-cap level<\/strong>, the index welcomed several consumer and tech-driven names, including Derayah Financial, Jahez International Company for Information System Technology, and Rasan Information Technology. Saudi Public Transport was downgraded to the Micro-Cap.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>At the micro-cap level<\/strong>, the new additions were Arabian Company for Agricultural and Industrial Investment, Banan Real Estate, Knowledge Economic City, Raoom Trading, Saudi Cable, and Shatirah House Restaurant. Gulf General Cooperative Ins. was removed entirely after failing investability standards. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Why it matters: <\/strong>Index reshuffles matter because they trigger real money flows. Funds tracking FTSE indices must buy companies that are added and sell those that are cut, moving liquidity and valuations. Inclusions are a stamp of approval, boosting visibility and investor confidence, while exclusions or downgrades can be a red flag on size or liquidity.<\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n    <div class=\"tags-section\">\n        <div class=\"f-graphik\">Tags:<\/div>\n        <div class=\"tags-list\">\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/ksa\/tag\/capital-markets\/\">Capital Markets<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"100006 advertiser\" class=\"issue-section enterprise-adv\">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                            \"\r\n            id=\"100006\">\r\n            \r\n            <div class=\"story__body\">\r\n\r\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/ksa\/2025\/08\/26\/100006\/\">\r\n                    <div class=\"photo photo--above\">\r\n                                            <\/div>\r\n                <\/a>\r\n\r\n                \n<article id=\"post-100006\" class=\"content-area-description single-story post-100006 post type-post status-publish format-standard hentry category-advertiser wpautop entry\">\n\n\t\n\t<div class=\"entry-content\">\n\n\t\t\n\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight:400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasheelfinance.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ent.news\/2024\/12\/1942.jpg?ssl=1\"><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"100007\" class=\"issue-section \">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                story-section            \"\r\n            id=\"100007\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">5<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">EARNINGS WATCH<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/ksa\/2025\/08\/26\/ladun-investment-posts-softer-1h-results\/\">\r\n                            Ladun Investment posts softer 1H results                        <\/a>\r\n                    <\/h3>\r\n\r\n                    \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"cta\">\n    <div class=\"cta__btn share-dropdown-cta dropdown-toggle-btn\" style=\"position:relative\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/internal\/408834.svg\" alt=\"\">\n        Share Story\n        <!-- Dropdown Menu -->\n        <ul class=\"share-menu\">\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/ksa\/2025\/08\/26\/ladun-investment-posts-softer-1h-results\/\" target=\"_blank\">\n                    Open in new tab                    <!-- <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"assets\/media\/placeholder\/svg\/new-tab.svg\" alt=\"\"> -->\n                <\/a>\n            <\/li>\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"#\" target=\"_blank\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault();

The entrance of more foreign workers would serve a \u201ccrucial role\u201d in addressing this, European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde argued.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Lagarde also attributed the Eurozone\u2019s \u201cunexpectedly\u201d strong recovery from the <\/strong><strong>pandemic to a rise in foreign workers<\/strong>, who accounted for more than half of labor force growth since 2022, despite only representing 9% of it. Looking ahead, Lagarde warned that without an uptick in foreign workers, the Eurozone could see 3.4 mn fewer working-age people by 2040, which would have serious knock-on effects for both labor market conditions and output.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The impact on Japan \u2014 famous for its shrinking population \u2014 from foreign workers has <\/strong><strong>been even greater<\/strong>, with the country\u2019s tiny foreign worker population \u2014 accounting for only 3% of the total labor force \u2014 being responsible for half of recent labor force growth, Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda also said at the summit. Nonetheless, despite the clear economic benefit \u2014 and maybe necessity \u2014 the proposal is still a mostly unpopular one for the voting public, much like in the EU.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey argued that the demographic issue facing the <\/strong><strong>UK and others has not been given the importance it deserves. <\/strong>The UK could see 40% of its population above the age of 64 by 2040, which will come coupled with a fall in labor participation rates, he explained. But while there\u2019s a growing agreement from the top central bankers, political sentiment in the world\u2019s most developed nations is yet to shift, with anti-migrant rhetoric becoming an increasingly common part of electioneering by parties of all stripes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">MARKETS THIS MORNING- <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Asian markets are in the red in early trading this morning<\/strong>, led by Japan\u2019s Nikkei inching down 1.0%.
