S&P Dow Jones Indices has announced its latest changes in the S&P/ASX Indices following the results of the June quarterly review.
These changes will be effective prior to the open of trading on 22 June.
Unfortunately for a number of ASX 200 shares, they have been kicked out of the benchmark S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO).
This could put downward pressure on their shares, as index funds will be forced to sell them to mirror the changes. In addition, some fund managers have strict investment mandates. This could include only being able to buy shares in the ASX 200 index.
Which ASX 200 shares have been kicked out of the index? S&P Dow Jones Indices has named five shares that will exit later this month. They are as follows:

Guzman Y Gomez Ltd (ASX: GYG)
This Mexican-focused quick service restaurant operator's shares are leaving the index in June. Over the past 12 months, Guzman Y Gomez's shares have lost 35% of their value. This is despite a recent rebound amid news that the company is closing its loss-making US operations.
IDP Education Ltd (ASX: IEL)
After losing more than 90% of their value over the past five years, this struggling language testing and student placement company's shares are leaving the ASX 200 index. IDP Education has been battling unfavourable student visa changes and general industry weakness.
Siteminder Ltd (ASX: SDR)
The Siteminder share price is down 37% since the start of the year, dragging its market capitalisation down to $1.1 billion. Concerns over the threat of AI disruption has weighed heavily on the hotel technology platform provider's shares.
Temple & Webster Group Ltd (ASX: TPW)
Another ASX 200 share heading out of the index later this month is online furniture retailer Temple & Webster. Its shares are down 80% since this time last year amid concerns over consumer spending, housing market weakness, and the potential for AI disruption.
Web Travel Group Ltd (ASX: WEB)
Finally, Web Travel shares have halved in value over the past 12 months. The Web Beds owner's performance has been relatively positive, but concerns over the Middle East conflict and its impact on travel markets has weighed on investor sentiment.
