Stock Market Glossary     

                                    

Select Sector SPDR Website:  Select Sector SPDRs are exchange traded funds (ETFs) that divide the S&P 500 into nine sector index funds.  Together, the nine Select Sector SPDRs represent the S&P 500 as a whole. Each Select Sector SPDR can be bought individually, providing investors with undiluted exposure to a particular sector or industry group.  Their web site allows students to research the stock market as a whole, by sector or by individual company.  

FYI: Each Select Sector Index is calculated using a modified "market capitalization" methodology. This formula ensures that each of the component stocks within a Select Sector Index is represented in a proportion consistent with its percentage of the total market cap of that particular index. 

CORRELATION TRACKER


StockCharts.Com:  This free stock analysis tool allows students to graph stock prices over time.  Students synthesize their prior knowledge of graphs with the financial literacy curriculum of this course. Students use this site to develop graphical displays to predict the future movement of stock prices in the short and intermediate term.   Students are introduced to graphical displays beyond standard line graphs. Stockcharts.com explains candlesticks in this hand-out.

Ameritrade Fund Comparison Tool :  This search engine allows users to input an index ticker symbol, and the engine outputs a chart that compares five similar funds with the input fund. 


Motley Fool: You've got to love any financial resource with such a self-depricating domain, fool.com. These guys were one of the first resources that attempted to educate the average investor in terms they could understand.  Originally, they communicated through a radio show and monthly newsletter.  Now they disseminate ther lessons through the web and social media.

Jim Cramer Explains Golden Crosses:  Description pending …. To develop their understanding of intermediate stock price predictors, students choose a stock and use stockcharts.com to create a time series price chart for three years.  Students then annotate all golden and death crosses.  An annotated  evaluation is added to stating whether the intermediate term price predictor was correct.


Understanding The Logarithmic Scale


Cyclical Phases: Peak-trough tables produced by the BLS Current Employment Statistics (CES) program identify key turning points in seasonally adjusted CES time series. Key turning points are those which mark the beginning of sustained periods of growth or contraction in the time series. These points mark changes in trend and are distinct from month-to-month or other short-term fluctuations.
