NSE To Launch 5 New Trading Indices

In: News|stock exchange

13 Jan 2009

The Vanguard Newspapers reports today that the NSE has announced that they will be launching 5 new trading indices. They are:

  1. NSE 30 index
  2. NSE Banking 10 Index
  3. NSE Insurance 10 Index
  4. NSE Food/Beverage 10 Index
  5. NSE OIL/Gas 5 Index

To be fair, this does not really matter. What people really care about now is how to strengthen the Naira and prevent further falls in prices on the NSE

If effort is made to create an index,its unfair to say “this does not really matter”, index serves its purpose and is a wellcomed developement. Least to say for academic and qualitative financial analysis work.
Please they need to be encouraged, liquidation in Stock exchange anywhere is a classical result of onset of recession. We should be pressuring the stimulation of economic activity through government spending in infrastructure, a repeat of Fashola formulation nationwide will increase demand,output,employment,and income generally

Well, you have a point. But right now, I dont think the index will make any difference.
