Indexing for Maximum Investment Results

Twenty-four years after investment managers decided to implement the S&P 500 indexing strategy, the verdict is in -- indexing is the way to go! The first indexers beat over 99% of all actively managed stock funds. In the last 10 years, funds based on the S&P 500 have outperformed over 80% of all mutual funds. Today nearly 10% of the total market value of all stocks traded in the U.S. (about $450 billion) is indexed to the S&P 500.

This book covers all aspects of indexing, including:

** choosing a benchmark ** using derivatives to index ** performance track record versus active management ** index methodology ** index price effects on constituent securities ** indexing other asset classes
