CSI 500 Index is one of the indexes developed by CSI Index Co., Ltd. In the sample space, the stocks are the top 300 stocks after deducting the sample stocks of CSI 300 Index and the average daily market value of the latest year. The rest of the stocks are sorted from high to low according to the average daily turnover of the latest year (since the listing of new shares), and the last 20% stocks are excluded. Then the remaining stocks are sorted from high to low according to the daily average total market value, and the top 500 stocks are selected. The CSI 500 Index comprehensively reflects the overall situation of small-cap companies in Shanghai and Shenzhen stock markets.
The two indices have different emphases. The former focuses on large-cap blue-chip stocks, while the latter focuses on small-cap stocks. Therefore, in terms of growth, the return on investment in the CSI 500 index should be higher. Of course, the risk is definitely higher. At present, there are not many CSI 500 index funds on the market. TEDA Manulife has just issued a CSI 500 fund. You can go and have a look.
