What are Indices?

Stock market indices are statistical measures of the performance of a group of stocks that represent a particular market or sector. They provide a snapshot of market performance and are often used as benchmarks for portfolio performance.

Trading indices allows investors to gain exposure to entire markets or sectors without having to buy individual stocks. This can offer diversification benefits and the ability to capitalize on broader market trends.
