The Ultimate Guide to Understanding the Hong Kong Stock Index
A stock index is a measurement of the value of a group of stocks. It is calculated by taking the sum of the market capitalizations of the stocks in the group and dividing by a divisor. The divisor is usually a number that is designed to make the index as stable as possible over time. The Hang Seng Index (HSI) is a stock index that measures the performance of the 50 largest companies listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
The HSI is one of the most important stock indices in Asia. It is used by investors to track the performance of the Hong Kong stock market and to make investment decisions. The HSI is also used by economists to measure the overall health of the Hong Kong economy.
