A stock index is an indicator that shows how the value of a particular set of assets changesfor which it collects data from different companies or sectors of a fragment of the market.

These indicators are mainly used by the stock exchanges of various countries around the world and each of them can be integrated by companies with certain characteristics such as having a similar market value or belonging to the same type of industry. In addition, there are some indexes that only consider a handful of stocks to determine their value, or others that take into account hundreds of stocks.

Stock market index serves as indicator of stock market confidence, business confidence, the health of the national and global economy and stock investment performance and shares in a company. If investors lack confidence, stock prices tend to fall.

They also work for measuring performance of an asset manager and allow investors to make a comparison between profitability and risk; measure the possibilities of a financial asset or create portfolios.

This type of indicators began to be used in the late 19th century after journalist Charles H. Dow. carefully analyzed how company stocks tended to rise or fall together, so he created two indexes: one containing the 20 main railroad companies (since that was the most important industry at the time), as well as 12 stocks of other types of companies

Today there are various indices and They can be grouped based on geographic location, sectors, company size or even asset type.For example, the US Nasdaq index consists of the 100 largest companies largely related to technology such as Apple (AAPL), Microsoft (MSFT), Amazon (AMZN), Facebook (FB), Alphabet (GOOG), Tesla (TSLA ), Nvidia (NVDA), PayPal (PYPL), Comcast (CMCSA), Adobe (ADBE).

Each stock index has its own way of calculation, but the main factor is the market value of each company that includes it. This is obtained by multiplying today’s value of the share on the corresponding stock market by the total number of shares that are on the market.

Companies that appear on the stock market are obliged to present a balance sheet of its composition. This report must be submitted every three or six months, as applicable.

Reading a stock index also requires observing its performance over time. Current indices always open with a fixed value based on security prices on your start date, but not everyone follows this method. Therefore, it can be misleading.

If one index sees an increase of 500 points in one day while another only adds 20, it may appear that the first had a better return. However, if the first started the day at 30,000 points and the second at 300, it can be inferred that the gains for the second were percentage wise greater.
