  • Gauging Your Investments with Performance Benchmarks
    Gauging Your Investments with Performance Benchmarks One way to evaluate your investments objectively is to use industry-standard performance benchmarks. A benchmark is a market index or average that allows you to compare the performance of your stocks, bonds, or mutual funds against similar investments. Here are some of the most well-known and widely used investment benchmarks: Stock Benchmarks Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA). The oldest and most widely quoted market indicator. It reflects the price-weighted average of 30 actively traded blue chip stocks, mostly industrials, that generally represent 15% to 20% of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) total market value. (In a price- weighted index, higher priced stocks carry more weight than lower priced issues.) The mix of individual stocks changes occasionally. Standard and Poor’s 500 Index (S&P 500). A market value-weighted index that reflects changes in the aggregate market value of 500 stocks compared to the base period of 19411943. The S&P 500 consists mainly of New York Stock Exchange industrials, although it also includes transportation, utility, and financial stocks traded on the American Stock Exchange (AMEX), as well as over-the-counter (OTC). National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation (NASDAQ) Composite Index. A broader measure of market activity than the DJIA or the S&P 500, this market value-weighted index tracks the prices of all securities traded on the NASDAQ Stock Market. The NASDAQ specializes in emerging companies, such as technology, telecommunications, and even electronic commerce. Market values are computed by multiplying the most recent sale price of the stock with the total number of outstanding shares.

  • A Primer on U.S. Stock Price Indices
    A Primer on U.S. Stock Price Indices he measurement of the “average” price of common stocks is a matter of widespread interest. Investors want to know how “the Tmarket” is doing, and to be able to compare their returns with a meaningful benchmark. Money managers often have their compensation tied to performance, typically measured by comparing their results to a benchmark portfolio, so they and their clients are interested in the benchmark portfolio’s returns. And policymakers want to judge the potential for sudden adjustments in stock prices when differences from “fundamental value” emerge. The most widely quoted stock price index, the Dow Jones Industrial Average, has been supplemented by other popular indices that are constructed in a different way and pose fewer problems as a measure of stock prices. At present, a number of stock price indices are reported by the few companies that we will consider in this paper. Each of these indices is intended to be a benchmark portfolio for a different segment of the universe of common stocks. This paper discusses some of the issues in constructing and interpreting stock price indices. It focuses on the most widely used indices: the Dow Jones Industrial Average, the Stan- dard & Poor’s 500, the Russell 2000, the NASDAQ Composite, and the Wilshire 5000. The first section of this study addresses issues of construction and interpretation of stock price indices. The second section compares the movements of the five indices in the last two decades and investigates the Peter Fortune relationship between the returns on the reported indices and the return on “the market.” Our results suggest that the Dow Jones Industrial Average (Dow 30) The author is a Senior Economist and has inherent problems in its construction.

    Why Switzerland? Marwan Naja, AS Investment Management January, 2010 I. Executive Summary Swiss Equities Have Outperformed: Here is a fact you probably did not know: The Swiss equity market has arguably been the best performing developed world market over the past 20, 10, 5 and 2 years. The SPI Index, which incorporates over 200 Swiss stocks, is the best performing index in Swiss Franc (“CHF”), US Dollars (“USD”), Euro (“EUR”) and British Pounds (“GBP”) over the past 20 years1,10 years, 5 years, and 2 years when compared to similar broad-based total return indices in the United States (S&P 500 Total Return), the United Kingdom (FTSE 350 Total Return), Germany (CDAX), France (SBF 120 Total Return) and Japan (TOPIX Total Return)2. For most of these periods the magnitude of the outperformance is significant. Furthermore, the Swiss market has exhibited attractive risk characteristics including lower volatility than comparable markets. Figure 1: SPI 20 Year Performance (red) Compared to Major Developed Indices in CHF3 1 The 20 year comparable excludes the EUR which has not existed for that duration and the French SBF 120 TR which was established in 1990 and has underperformed the SPI over the 19 year period. 2 The Swiss market is the best performer in our local currency comparison (stripping out the foreign exchange effects) over 20 years and marginally trails the FTSE 350 for the 10 year, 5 year and 2 year comparisons. 3 Source of all graphs is Bloomberg unless otherwise indicated.

Blue chips took a small weekly loss. Healthy Lifestyle Green Living The Nasdaq and S&P respectively gained 0.40% and 0.54% on the week. The Dow Jones Industrial Average retreated just 0.17%. Outdoing these three benchmarks, the MSCI EAFE index tracking stocks in developed overseas markets rose 1.35%.[1][2] The Early Earnings Picture According to stock market analytics firm FactSet, 15% of S&P 500 companies had reported results through Friday's close. Of those companies, 84% announced that net profits topping projections, and 64% said that revenues had exceeded forecasts. One big question is whether overall earnings for S&P 500 firms will show year-over-year growth. There was no year-over-year earnings gain evident in either Q1 or Q2.[3] Retail Sales Declined Last Month Shoppers scaled back their purchases in September. The Census Bureau announced a 0.3% dip for retail sales, the first decrease in seven months. Auto sales can influence this number, and car and truck buying fell 0.9% last month. A fall pickup in that category may help encourage another monthly advance.[4] What's Next If you buy your own health coverage, note that the open enrollment period for 2020 health insurance plans begins on November 1 in most states.

  • Appendix 15.1 Major US Stock Market Indexes
    Predicting the Markets Ed Yardeni Appendix 15.1 Major US Stock Market Indexes (1) Dow Jones Industrials Average includes only 30 blue chip stocks. The Dow Jones averages are unique in that they are price weighted rather than market capitalization weighted. Their component weightings are therefore affected only by changes in the stocks’ prices, in contrast with other indexes’ weightings that are affected by both price changes and changes in the number of shares outstanding. The Dow Jones Transportation and Dow Jones Utilities indexes have 20 and 15 components, respectively.1 (2) S&P 500 is a market capitalization weighted index of 500 stocks. The stocks of this index are selected for being a representative sample of leading companies in leading industries. Many “LargeCap” equity managers benchmark the performance of their portfolios to the S&P 500. (3) S&P 1500 combines the S&P 500 (LargeCaps) with the S&P 400 (MidCaps) and the S&P 600 (SmallCaps). During 2016, the S&P 500 was limited to companies with a market value (or capitalization) of $5.3 billion or more. The S&P 400 companies had a market cap between $1.4 billion and $5.9 billion. The S&P 600 companies were between $400 million and $1.8 billion. (4) NYSE Composite includes approximately 2,000 stocks traded on the New York Stock Exchange. It is designed to measure the performance of all common stocks listed on the NYSE, including American Depository Receipts (ADRs), Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs), and tracking stocks. Closed-end funds, ETFs, limited partnerships and derivatives are excluded from the index.
