Frankfurt Stock Exchange calculates indicator for private investor sentiment

Bull/Bear Index tracks market opinion of 600 private investors
May 23, 2013--Frankfurt Stock Exchange is now measuring the expectations of private investors for the first time with its Bull/Bear Index. Until now, the indicator only measured the expectations of institutional investors.

The survey has now also been extended to include questions on individual securities and point forecasts. In cooperation with Comdirect Bank, around 600 selected private investors provide weekly information on whether they are optimistic or pessimistic about the market. The data is collected every Wednesday and available from 6 p.m. on the website www.boerse-frankfurt.de under "Sentiment Indicators".

The Frankfurt Stock Exchange asks investors whether the DAX will rise, fall or move sideways in the next four weeks. Participants also state the level they expect the DAX to be at. This information can reveal the strength of a trend and enable more detailed statements about investor sentiment. The decisive factor is that the investors questioned are actually active in the market. The statements thus reflect real investor behaviour and are particularly meaningful.

STOXX introduces equal weight version for China A 50 Index

May 22, 2013--STOXX Limited, the market-moving provider of innovative, tradable and global index concepts, today introduced the STOXX China A 50 Equal Weight Index, which represents the components of the recently launched STOXX China A 50 Index irrespective of their market capitalization by weighing them equally.

The new index is designed to underlie financial products such as exchange-traded funds (ETFs) or structured products.

“STOXX is not only committed to develop innovative index concepts, but also to apply new strategies to existing indices to offer market participants a broad set of superior benchmarks,” said Hartmut Graf, chief executive officer, STOXX Limited. “In the new STOXX China A 50 Equal Weight Index, the smallest companies are given the same weight as the largest companies, thus no small group of components dominates the index. This leads to a maximum diversification of China’s largest 50 A-shares.”

IMF Survey-U.K. Should Restore Growth, Rebalance Economy

May 22, 2013--Some signs of an uptick in growth, but still far from strong, sustainable recovery
Financial policies should ensure monetary easing reaches broader economy
Fiscal, structural policies to boost expectations of incomes and investment returns
The United Kingdom could boost growth by bringing forward measures already included in its fiscal plan, such as spending on infrastructure and job skills, the International Monetary Fund said as it wrapped up its annual check of Europe's third largest economy.

Despite recent improvements in some indicators of economic growth, the economy is still a long way from a strong and sustainable recovery. The economy also needs to rebalance, the IMF said, and make the transition to a high-investment and more export-oriented economy.
