MID CAP 50 & TECH 30 in a Nutshell
As knowledge is King in electronic trading, our team of experts at JFD Research has prepared for your review a set of learning materials to get you up to speed with these 2 new German indices. What is hot with them and why is it important to consider them in your portfolio? Read on to get the insights!
Germany Mid-Cap 50 Index
The MDAX is a stock index made up from 50 mid-sized companies' stocks (midcaps), listed in the Prime Segment of Deutsche Börse. These shares cover various sectors, such as pharmaceuticals, chemicals, engineering and financial sectors, excluding technology. The MDAX is a performance index, showing the performance of an index portfolio investment, taking into account the income generated from dividend payments.
Market experts consider the MDAX as a highly volatile index that could be suitable for short-term trading techniques such as scalping applied in an intraday timeframe because of the fast price movements in the market (currently quoted at above 20,000). However, it is recommended to invest a reasonable amount in it backed with a solid risk mitigation strategy in order to avoid any unexpected circumstances.
