An index is essentially a list of stocks, representing a particular market, or a portion of it. Each index serves as a statistical measure of changes in a securities market, and investors turn to indices to monitor the performance of the stock market, and trade on its movements.
Fluctuations in the price of an index represent a proportional change in the portfolio of stocks that make up the index. For instance, the American Dow Jones presents a portfolio of 30 large publicly owned US companies traded on the New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq. As a price weighted index, the stocks with higher prices have a greater weight and therefore have more of an impact on the Dow’s performance.
Take your trading global, investing in indices from across the world, including the German DAX 30, the American Nasdaq, the British FTSE 100, the Japanese NIKKEI 225, the Hong Kong Hang Seng, and more.
