Indices

Stock market indices are a trusted weather-wane to identify changes in the financial markets. The indices serve as performance indicators, showing how the market either overall or in a particular market segment is performing. Equities from similar companies or those that meet a set of criteria are selected to create a stock market index. These shares are already traded and listed on the exchanges. A variety of factors, such as market capitalization, industry, and segment can be used to construct share market indices. Every stock market index monitors the performance and price changes of the individual stocks that make up the index.

The stock market is about much more than just trading or investing in stocks, known as Equity. In fact, the global market lives and breathes Derivatives (alternatively known as Futures & Options). Global indices include stocks from many nations, business sectors, and industries and are essential components of the global financial scenario. A quick glance at global indices lets the savvy trader/investor know which countries' bourses, an indicator of the host economy, are doing well.
