How your investments measure up
Article Abstract:
Realtors can assess the performance of their portfolio or a prospective stock through investment indexes. These allow the measurement of the performance of various investment markets, thus providing a benchmark against which an investment's returns can be evaluated. Among commonly quoted indexes are the Dow Jones industrial average and Standard & Poor's 500 index.
