The US 500 Index, also known as the Standard & Poor's 500, or simply the S&P, is an American stock market index that brings together 500 large-cap companies, listed on the NYSE or NASDAQ. The S&P 500 chart is composed by a special committee, who consider the company's market capitalisation, liquidity, size, and industry grouping. This capitalisation-weighted Index is often referred to as the bellwether of the US economy.
