Asset class 03 of 06

Indices

Benchmark equity indices from the United States, Europe and Asia.

One instrument

An index measures a basket of shares, so one instrument gives exposure to a whole market. It is traded as a CFD: you do not own the underlying shares.

The market

What it is.

A stock index measures a basket of shares. Trading an index gives exposure to a whole market in a single instrument rather than to one company.

How it is structured at GIO4X

Indices are traded as contracts for difference (CFDs): you do not own the underlying shares, and your result is the change in the index level multiplied by your position size.

Commonly monitored

01Corporate earnings
02Interest rates and bond yields
03Economic growth data
04The opening and closing auctions of the underlying exchange
