Indices
Indices supply investors with a composite report on market performance. The index values can be used to compute total returns for an aggregate market or some component of a market over a specified time period and use the rates of return computed as a benchmark to judge the performance of individual portfolios (Source: Investment Analysis & Portfolio Management, Reilly & Brown, p.152).
