Real Estate: which companies drove growth

The 20 largest Real Estate companies by market cap at the end of Q2 2024 (30 Jun 2024), compared with Q2 2023.

The top 20 at Q2 2024

Weight is each company's share of the 20 companies' combined market cap. Contribution is the change in its owners' profit divided by their combined base profit, in percentage points, so the column adds up to the sector's earnings growth. EPS cannot be added across companies, which is why contributions use profit.
