HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS HAVE MANY INHERENT LIMITATIONS, SOME OF WHICH ARE DESCRIBED
BELOW. NO REPRESENTATION IS BEING MADE THAT ANY ACCOUNT WILL OR IS LIKELY TO ACHIEVE PROFITS OR LOSSES
SIMILAR TO THOSE SHOWN. IN FACT, THERE ARE FREQUENTLY SHARP DIFFERENCES BETWEEN HYPOTHETICAL
PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND THE ACTUAL RESULTS SUBSEQUENTLY ACHIEVED BY ANY PARTICULAR TRADING
PROGRAM. ONE OF THE LIMITATIONS OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS IS THAT THEY ARE GENERALLY
PREPARED WITH THE BENEFIT OF HINDSIGHT. IN ADDITION, HYPOTHETICAL TRADING DOES NOT INVOLVE FINANCIAL
RISK, AND NO HYPOTHETICAL TRADING RECORD CAN COMPLETELY ACCOUNT FOR THE IMPACT OFFINANCIAL RISK
IN ACTUAL TRADING. FOR EXAMPLE, THE ABILITY TO WITHSTAND LOSSES OR TO ADHERE TO A PARTICULAR TRADING
PROGRAM IN SPITE OF TRADING LOSSES ARE MATERIAL POINTS WHICH CAN ALSO ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL
TRADING RESULTS. THERE ARE NUMEROUS OTHER FACTORS RELATED TO THE MARKETS IN GENERAL OR TO THE
IMPLEMENTATION OF ANY SPECIFIC TRADING PROGRAM WHICH CANNOT BE FULLY ACCOUNTED FOR IN THE
PREPARATION OFHYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND ALL OF WHICH CAN ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL
TRADING RESULTS.

Market Quotes
"At the end of the day, the most important thing is how good
are you at risk control. Money management is the most
important thing in the whole world. If you don't stay in the
game, it doesn't make a difference how well you play."

The S&P 500
Description
The S&P 500® is widely regarded as the best single gauge of large-cap U.S. equities. According to our Annual
Survey of Assets, an estimated USD 15.6 trillion is indexed or benchmarked to the index, with indexed assets
comprising approximately USD 7.1 trillion of this total (as of Dec. 31, 2021). The index includes 500 leading
companies and covers approximately 80% of available market capitalization.
Index Attributes
Created in 1957, the S&P 500 was the first U.S. market-cap-weighted stock market index. Today, it’s the basis of
many listed and over-the-counter investment instruments. This world-renowned index includes 500 of the top
companies in leading industries of the U.S. economy.
The S&P 500 is part of a series of S&P Dow Jones U.S. equity indices that can be used as mutually exclusive building
blocks; the index does not overlap holdings with the S&P MidCap 400® or S&P SmallCap 600®. Together, they
constitute the S&P Composite 1500®.
Methodology Construction
Public Float. Companies must have an investable weight factor (IWF) of at least 0.10.
Financial Viability. Companies must have positive as-reported earnings over the most recent quarter, as well as over
the most recent four quarters (summed together).
Adequate Liquidity and Reasonable Price. Using composite pricing and volume, the ratio of annual dollar value
traded (defined as average closing price over the period multiplied by historical volume) to float-adjusted market
capitalization should be at least 0.75, and the stock should trade a minimum of 250,000 shares in each of the six
months leading up to the evaluation date.
Sector Representation. Sector balance, as measured by a comparison of each GICS® sector’s weight in an index
with its weight in the S&P Total Market Index, in the relevant market capitalization range, is also considered in the
selection of companies for the indices.
Company Type. All eligible U.S. common equities listed on eligible U.S. exchanges can be included. REITs are also
eligible for inclusion. Closed-end funds, ETFs, ADRs, ADS, and certain other types of securities are ineligible for
inclusion.
