The capital markets index (CPMKTSsm)〔(CPMKTS.com )〕 is an investment tool that tracks the value of traditional investment-grade U.S. capital market securities. CPMKTS is a real-time, market-weighted index. It includes approximately 9,500 equity, fixed income and money market instruments. CPMKTS index was launched by Dorchester Capital Management Company of Houston, Texas on May 4, 2006. The Capital Markets Index is carried on the American Stock Exchange〔(Amex.com )〕 under the symbol CPMKTS with updates every 15 seconds. ==Product details== CPMKTS measures the capital markets on a consolidated basis. Rather than further subdivide the market as other indexes do, CPMKTS views the capital markets on a broader basis and therefore includes stocks, bonds and money market instruments. It satisfies the needs of both professional and lay investors for a measurement tool for mixed or blended portfolios and provides the basis for a wide variety of investment instruments. Other indexes within the CPMKTS family measure sub-segments of the market. The Amex also publishes sub-indexes CPMKTE, CPMKTB and CPMKTL, tracking equities, bonds and liquidity, respectively. The CPMKTS and its family of indexes were created to meet the market's need for: # More sophisticated measures of capital market performance # Improved measures of risk and return # Better tools to make asset-allocation and investment decisions Highlights of the CPMKTS index include: # Comprises stocks, bonds, and money market instruments from the US investment grade capital markets. # Component fixed income securities and money market instruments are revised monthly. Component equity securities are revised quarterly. All weightings are revised monthly. # Completely transparent rules-based selection criteria. # Has documented demand from investment professionals and individual investors as benchmark tool and as a basis for investment product basis, as documented by Harris Interactive/Quest Business Agency Market Research # Delivers capital market return for capital market risk # Replicates the capital markets' actual asset allocation # No known competitors in measuring the broader capital markets' performance # Back-tested to December 1979 using the same methodology employed for ongoing revisions and calculations. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Capital markets index」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
