Hochtief AG (HOT GR) has finally launched an unconditional offer for the rest of CIMIC Group Ltd (CIM AU) (where it already owns 78.58%).
As David Blennerhassett writes in Hochtief's Unconditional Offer For CIMIC, this should be a done deal. Completion would free up a place in the S&amp;P/ASX200.  
This looks to be one of the earlier Q2 intra-quarter changes, but there are technicalities.

When the Aventus Group (AVN AU) / HomeCo Daily Needs REIT (HDN AU) Scheme was announced four months ago, it looked to complete in late January or very early February. 
Because of an ATO staff shortage, the Second Court Hearing was delayed by nearly three weeks, pushing implementation back. The calculation of S&amp;P/ASX index rankings may not be as expected.
Most or all of the AVN downweight is covered by a HDN upweight next Wednesday but whither ASX200 in March?


The Weird Ways of the Aventus/HomeCo Daily Needs Index Rebalances (ASX200)

<ul>
<li>There could be 2 changes to the ASX100 and ASX200 prior to the March rebalance due to the acquisitions of <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/ausnet-services" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:10293:1" rel="noopener">Ausnet Services (AST AU)</a> and <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/sydney-airport" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:19063:1" rel="noopener">Sydney Airport (SYD AU)</a>. </li>

There could be 2 changes to the ASX100 and ASX200 prior to the March rebalance due to the acquisitions of Ausnet Services (AST AU) and Sydney Airport (SYD AU). 
There will also be the large BHP Group (BHP AU) upweight and funding trade following unification, and possibly the Afterpay Touch (APT AU) acquisition by Square Inc (SQ US). 
Then there will be more changes to the ASX200 and ASX300 at the March rebalance. There could be a lot of new listings included in the ASX300.
