What is an Index?
A stock market index is a measurement of a section of the stock market. It is computed from the prices of selected stocks (typically a weighted average). Indices are used by investors and financial managers to describe the market and to compare the return on specific investments.
The S&P 500, for example, tracks 500 of the largest U.S. publicly traded companies. When you trade an index, you're effectively trading the collective performance of all those companies — giving you broad market exposure without having to buy each stock individually.
How Index Trading Works
You can trade indices through ETFs (exchange-traded funds), index CFDs (contracts for difference), or index futures. ETFs let you own a basket of stocks tracking the index. CFDs let you speculate on price movements with leverage without owning the underlying assets. Futures are standardized contracts to buy or sell the index at a future date and price.
