S&P 500 Stock Index Description
The S&P 500 Index is calculated
using a base-weighted aggregate methodology. That means the level of the
Index reflects the total market value of all 500 component stocks relative
to a particular base period. The total market value of a company is
determined by multiplying the price of its stock by the number of shares
outstanding.
The components of the S&P 500 are
selected by committee. This is similar to the Dow 30, but different from others
such as the Russell 1000, which are strictly rules-based. The committee selects
the companies in the S&P 500 so they are representative of various industries in
the United States economy.
The S&P 500 is one of the most commonly
used benchmarks for the overall U.S. stock market. The Dow Jones Industrial
Average (DJIA) was at one time the most renowned index for U.S. stocks, but
because the DJIA contains only 30 companies, most people agree that the S&P 500
is a better representation of the U.S. market. In fact, many consider it to be
the definition of the market.
Statisticians call an index of a set of combined variables
(such as price and number of shares) a composite index. An indexed number
is used to represent the results of this calculation in order to make the
value easier to work with and track over time. It is much easier to graph
a chart based on indexed values than one based on actual values.
