Which of the following statements about indexes is TRUE ()
A. A price-weighted index assumes an equal number of shares (one of each stock) represented in the index.
B. An unweighted index assumes a proportionate market value investment in each company in the index.
C. A value weighted index assumes an investor makes and maintains an equal dollar investment in each stock in their portfolio.
参考答案:A
解析:
The descriptions of value weighted and unweighted indexes are switched. The denominator of a price-weighted index must be adjusted to reflect stock splits and changes in the sample over time. A market value-weighted series assumes you make a proportionate market value investment in each company in the index.
