HopeAlways : For my investment, I pay attention most to the $Nasdaq Composite Index (.IXIC.US)$, a stock index that consists of the stocks that are listed on the Nasdaq stock exchange. The $Nasdaq Composite Index (.IXIC.US)$ is one of the most widely followed U.S. stock indexes and is usually one of the three main indexes that market analysts normally refer to along with the $Dow Jones Industrial Average (.DJI.US)$ and $S&P 500 Index (.SPX.US)$. As the $Nasdaq Composite Index (.IXIC.US)$ has a high concentration of companies in the tech sector, particularly of the younger, fast growing variety, the $Nasdaq Composite Index (.IXIC.US)$ is often regarded as a good barometer of how well the tech market is performing. As my stock portfolio consists of a number of tech stocks like $Apple (AAPL.US)$, $Microsoft (MSFT.US)$, $NVIDIA (NVDA.US)$, it is the market index that is most compatible with my investment strategy.

... A trader needs to be sensitive to changes in the market and take appropriate action when the time arises
Syuee : I usually pay attention to the $S&P 500 Index (.SPX.US)$ stock market index that tracks the stocks of 500 large-cap U.S. companies.
It represents the stock market's performance by reporting the risks and returns of the biggest companies.
$S&P 500 Index (.SPX.US)$ tends to be broader, have a bigger representation of companies from various sectors and industry groups.
I use it as the benchmark of the overall market, to which all other investments are compared.
The $Dow Jones Industrial Average (.DJI.US)$, $S&P 500 Index (.SPX.US)$, and $Nasdaq Composite Index (.IXIC.US)$ indexes are all indicators of the current state of the stock markets. They reflect investors’ confidence and thus may be indicators of the health of the overall economy.
The $S&P 500 Index (.SPX.US)$’s components of the index are updated on a quarterly basis. A committee determines which companies to include in the index.
My top holdings are $Apple (AAPL.US)$$Microsoft (MSFT.US)$$NVIDIA (NVDA.US)$$Amazon (AMZN.US)$$American Airlines (AAL.US)$$AT&T (T.US)$$Boeing (BA.US)$$Cisco (CSCO.US)$$Ford Motor (F.US)$$Walmart (WMT.US)$$Wynn Resorts (WYNN.US)$$Kellanova (K.US)$.
Hence, $S&P 500 Index (.SPX.US)$ is one of the most suitable market indices which I pay the most attention to.
HopeAlways Syuee : The $S&P 500 Index (.SPX.US)$ is the golden benchmark of the U.S. stock market. It is widely regarded as the most prominent in the U.S. and generally considered as the best overall benchmark for the U.S. stock market. Some of the mega cap stocks that sit at the top of the $S&P 500 Index (.SPX.US)$ are still popular, which has resulted in price appreciation and high valuations over the past year.
Syuee HopeAlways : The $Nasdaq Composite Index (.IXIC.US)$ includes all companies listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market - more than 3,300 stocks all in all.
As such, it is considerably more broad-based than the $Dow Jones Industrial Average (.DJI.US)$. However, the $Nasdaq Composite Index (.IXIC.US)$ has a high concentration of technology stocks, so the composite index is more sensitive to that industry than other sectors.
newbie-pooh : I usually pay attention to the upcoming US IPO shares and the shares I have come into contact with in my daily life. IPO shares will not account for the majority, my focus is to choose stable companies to invest, such as$Apple (AAPL.US)$The next step is to invest$NVIDIA (NVDA.US)$ $Meta Platforms (FB.US)$And$Microsoft (MSFT.US)$Waiting for admission.![undefined [undefined]](https://static.moomoo.com/nnq/emoji/static/image/default/default-black.png?imageMogr2/thumbnail/36x36)

Why did you choose IPOs? Because generally speaking, the price of a share is less than $100, and then newly listed companies usually soar in the first few weeks. I want to speculate once in a while.
However, long-term investment still chooses historic stocks. There is more information to refer to. I will pay attention to any meta-universe stocks that are very popular recently, because it is likely to be realized in the next 10-20 years.
Banks and technology stocks are never out of date. Do you have any suggestions to focus on the bank stocks?
101767718 HopeAlways : Many good tech companies are down for a while already. Have to monitor the Nasdaq more closely during this time.
101767718 HopeAlways : Certainly, an important index to note for those investing in the 500 top companies.
