Aus dem Klappentext

Like so many other areas of the market, stock indexes-the compilations of many stocks such as the Standard & Poor's 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average-have traditionally been out of reach for the individual investor and small trader. But thanks to the recent creation of E-mini S&P 500 and Dow futures and options contracts, private investors and professional traders can now join the major players actively trading the most popular broad markets. Financial writer Susan Abbott Gidel provides a comprehensive overview of everything traders and investors need to know about the different types of stock indexes and how they are traded. Included here are all the essentials, with complete details on using stock index futures and options-including pricing, technical analysis, market indicators, circuit breakers, index expirations, and more. You'll learn how to formulate sound strategies that are tailored to individual trading philosophies, from minimizing risk by spreading one contract against another and diversifying stock holdings to capitalizing on the "January Effect" to make gains on rising small-cap stocks. You'll also see which individual stocks are the most influential in each index. Susan Gidel explains how the index you are trading is designed, calculated, and targeted for a particular type of investor. She focuses on broad-based stock indexes, including the NYSE Composite and Standard & Poor's 500 in the United States as well as a host of pan-European indexes and those representing stock markets in eleven North American, Asian, and European countries. Other U.S. markets she focuses on include large-, mid-, and small-cap indexes such as the DJIA and Russell 2000; and style and sector indexes, including the NASDAQ-100, the S&P 500 Growth and Value indexes, and the Internet Stock Index. She highlights more than forty accessible indexes available today on twenty U.S. and foreign exchanges, including the Chicago Board of Trade, Chicago Mercantile Exchange, London International Financial Futures and Options Exchange, Eurex, and the Singapore International Monetary Exchange. Stock Index Futures & Options provides you with the professional know-how and critical overview both individual investors and professional traders need to break into trading stock indexes on every major stock market in the world.
