Index inclusions often boost institutional demand by attracting capital from passive funds that track the benchmarks. In this vein, GFL Environmental Inc. (GFL) announced its addition to both the Russell 1000 large-cap and Russell 3000 broad-market indices, effective June 29, 2026, according to a press release.
The inclusion follows the annual Russell index reconstitution based on total market capitalization rankings. The move is expected to drive significant passive inflows into GFL shares, particularly from exchange-traded funds that replicate the two indices. The stock closed at $36.01 on June 23, 2026, per market data, with a daily range between $35.35 and $36.06.
