Вопросы и ответы
I want to invest in an S&P 500 index fund. What is the difference between an actual index fund a
Should I go with Spiders, iShares, Vanguard index fund or another option? Also, what are some other popular indexes to track besides the s&p 500? I would like to diversify my index portfolio.
My personal preference is for the iShares ETF product.
Exchange Traded Funds have several advantages over index mutual funds. The first is that they are exchange traded, which means that you can move into and out of a position during market hours just like buying a stock. This means you can use limit orders, stop orders, and other types of advanced order routing.
A mutual fund does not trade on an exchange. Your order to "buy" or "sell" is processed after the market closes. Advanced order types such as "stop" or "limit" orders are not available.
The ETF product is typically more cost and tax efficient.
When someone "buys" or "sells" a mutual fund, the funds are actually received and/or disbursed out of the fund's available capital. That means that some portion of the capital must be held in cash to handle routine inflows and outflows of investor funds. That means that you're not fully invested in the index.
Shares of ETF's are traded on the exchange, so you when you buy shares you are buying them from someone who is selling them and when you sell, you are selling someone who is buying the shares. There is no distribution made from the ETF itself, it's just that the shares changed hands. As such, an ETF does not need the cash reserve to handle inflows and outflows of investor capital and you will be more fully invested in the market.
Many ETF's are also optionable, meaning that you can buy or sell options on the underlying Exchange Traded Fund. For example, the iShares SPYder has a very liquid option chain. Want to sell covered calls against the S&P 500? No problem. Want to buy a put to protect against a market downturn? Easy.
You can even use basic option strategies to buy into the ETF at opportune times. For example, you might sell puts at a key price level where you would like to buy the fund. Each month you sell one put option for each 100 shares you would like to buy. You receive cash in your account. If the market pulls back and you're assigned, you're long the market at a price you chose and the cost of purchase was partially subsidized by the sale of the put option(s).
Mutual funds have no options.
We could push deeper into this, but I think I've hit on the major advantages of an ETF product versus an index mutual fund. About the only downside to an ETF is the brokerage commission for entering and exiting the position, but with commissions so deeply discounted this is less of an issue and can quickly be offset by the savings on management fees.
What were the list of stocks that made up the S&P 500 index given any time over the last 10 year
I wish to backtest some trading ideas over the last 10 years on the stocks that make up the S&P 500 index.
To do so, I want to recreate the S&P 500 index over the last 10 years. i.e. know the constituent stocks of the index at any stage, and then recreate the historical data for that time. I will probably make 3-monthly chunks of historical data for the stocks, including those that are now delisted.
Where can I get this information for free or for a small charge? A list of changes (up to the year 1996) may suffice.
S&P has this information on their web site -- but it just goes back to 2000. The link is below.
You might be able to get this information from the CRSP database -- which can be accessed through WRDS (Wharton's data system). This data is not cheap -- but if you are at a business school or are an alumni from a business school, you might be able to access it through the B-School's library for free.
why do over 80% of mutual funds and stock brokers fail to do beat the S&P 500 Index?
Why do over 80 percent of mutual funds and stock brokers fail to do beat the S&P 500 Index? If they claim to be so smart, why can’t most of them beat the performance of this simple index?
lots of little reasons. They cahrage fees, which lowers theyre performance. They collectively buy and sell a lot, which costs money to make so many transactions. They also are supposedly under pressure to sell losing positions they "don't have time to wait it out". Few do a fundmental analysis, regardless of what they claim: they do the technical analysis and buy and sell too often. Theyre are often forced to sell low, which really hurts results. Also, simply put many are not smarter than monkeys throwing darts- read "a random walk down wall street"
