Indexes are used to measure the performance of a section of the market, and some investors use them as a way to benchmark their own portfolios. There are three major stock indexes in the world: the S&amp;P 500, the Nasdaq, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average. The S&amp;P 500 is made up of 500 large American companies, the Nasdaq includes over 3,000 technology and biotechnology companies, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average tracks 30 large American companies. The main difference between these indexes is their size and scope: The S&amp;P 500 tracks bigger companies while the Nasdaq focuses on tech stocks, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average covers a broader range of industries than the other two indexes.","inLanguage":"fi"},"inLanguage":"fi"},{"@type":"Question","@id":"https:\/\/jonathanbjorkskog.com\/explanation\/stock-index-explained#faq-question-1643963384442","position":3,"url":"https:\/\/jonathanbjorkskog.com\/explanation\/stock-index-explained#faq-question-1643963384442","name":"Mik\u00e4 on osakeindeksiesimerkki?","answerCount":1,"acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"An index is a wholly representative portfolio that has been traded in the market for a certain period of time.
