The U.S. S&P 500 is a weighted stock index that monitors the 505 largest U.S. joint-stock companies traded in the United States. The internal arrangement tracks the market capitalisation of individual companies in the index, comparing the capitalisation of each of the enterprises included in it with the total market capitalisation. The selection is also governed by the total volume of trading of the title and does not leave a criterion of industry representativeness. This makes it an ideal tool for obtaining insight and up-to-date information about the structure of the American economy.

Standard & Poor's does not just track titles traded on Wall Street (NYSE). As a truly versatile tool, it also reflects companies traded on the American Stock Exchange (AMEX) and those monitored by the NASDAQ technology index.

The S&P 500 is a net "price index". It does not take into account dividends, but thanks to the choice of companies, the investor reads data on the solidity of companies. Rather, it is an exception if some of the companies under review do not pay a regular dividend to their shareholders.

Investment strategy and objective

Since the financial crisis in March 2009, the performance index has reached a level of 462% with average monthly performance of +3.67%. The long-term dividend yield is 4.33%, up from 1.85% in November 2019.

The absolute highest index was recorded in June 1932, when it was at 13.84%. The minimum value level of 1.11% was recorded in August 2000. The index promises an aggregated average return of 48.37% p. a. in the specified period. Since the beginning of 1970, the yield has remained at 3,441%. Investors can take advantage of a broadly diversified portfolio weighted by market capitalisation, trading volume and the position of the sector in the U.S. economy with a very powerful dividend appendix. The advantage is its easy readability supplemented by a high degree of diversification. In retail conditions, this is a truly unique tool.

In Asset management, the SP500 index is traded using the Shares Core S&P 500 UCITS ETF instrument.

This table shows how much money you could get back over the next five years in different scenarios, provided you invest $10,000. These scenarios suggest what results might result from your investment. You can compare them to other product scenarios. The scenarios presented represent an estimate of future performance based on historical and projected developments and do not constitute an exact indicator. How much money the investment will bring will vary, especially depending on what the development of the SP500 index will be and what the overall development on world markets will be. It will also be important whether you keep the amount invested for the entire intended period. The stress scenario shows the return under extreme market conditions and does not take into account a situation where the product creator will not be able to pay off your investment. These values do not include the costs of the product itself, in particular the entry and management fee, as well as the profit charge.

Trading is risky, and the value of the investment can grow and fall. Past revenues are not a guarantee of future returns. You can lose even more than your entire original investment. Consider each of your transactions carefully first. Do not make any trades if you do not understand all the risks carefully. More information can be found on our website www.mercurius.pro.
