How does the stock market indexes work? How do you compute for the stock index? Asked by nextbase - Mon Oct 1 20:38:54 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. First order explanation: DJIA weighs against the stock price for the 30 companies it tracks. For example Stock A is $40/share while Stock B is $20/share Stock A's movements will affect ~ 67% of the two stock "DJIA" index. S&P 500 weighs against the market cap of companies. Therefore one ultra-cap company will have a dominate affect on the index movement verses many less large cap companies. I only talked about two major indices but the formula for calculating their "price" is pretty involved. Check out some books on stocks and indexes or visit websites like investopedia.com, fool.com, etc. Also the indices and stock exchanges have their own websites which will go into more detail.

What should I do??? Asked by evelinka420 - Fri Jun 8 13:57:21 2007 - - 6 Answers - 0 Comments A. It looks like it will be up about 1.10% today. You can check this site at ~6:15 PM and they will usually have the day's change listed: https://flagship.vanguard .com/VGApp/hnw/FundsByTyp e As far as what it will do next week, next month or next year I do not know. But you're 23 years old. By the time you retire it will be worth a whole lot more than it is now. Try to stomach the ups and downs and you will be amply rewarded in time. Answered by Joe - Fri Jun 8 16:01:09 2007 What is a better investment for the ROTH IRA, the S&P Index 500, or the Total Stock Market Index?
Q. They are both under Vanguard. Asked by shygirl018_2000 - Tue May 2 21:49:14 2006 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. They'll be about the same. I'm not sure exactly which mutual fund or ETF you're actually comparing. Go with the one with lower fees. I looked up the Vanguard ones. It's .18% and .19% fees. They're both about the same. They're here: and here: You can see that they're almost identical in every respect. Neither one is a bad choice. I have to comment on the things below. Historically, 75% of mutual funds underperform the S&P, after fees because they have to earn an extra 1.5% or so to beat the S&P. So, it's more like getting an A- or a low A, gambling for that A+ and then falling short most of the time. Sure, 25% do better, but it's not always the same 25% every year.
