Global indices can be a powerful tool for investors looking to track the performance of companies in a particular industry. By trading indices, investors can take advantage of market movements, either by speculating on the direction of an economy or by hedging against potential losses in their own portfolio. For instance, a trader who believes the UK stock market is going to rise could purchase the FTSE 100 instead of buying all the individual stocks in the FTSE, or vice versa if the trader is expecting the market to fall.
