Ranking Stock Indices and Investment Themes

You may want to invest in a stock market index or investment theme but aren’t sure where to invest. We researched and ranked each of almost 60+ stock indices and 60+ investment themes worldwide against each other from the perspective of four investment strategies: value, growth, safety, combined performance.

The rank value below is the weighted average of all or a significant portion of the stock ranks in the index. Rank informs how well a particular stock index or investment theme fits the profile of a particular investment strategy. For example, a stock index with a rank of 90 in Growth means that it holds a large number of growth stocks.
