🤔 What is an index? 🤔
An index is a collection of stocks. It's made to follow stocks based on a particular criteria.
So this means your portfolio is an index! It's made up of a criteria that you decided on:
- I personally like the companies
-I like the price of the stock
-I like the management
-my financial advisor recommended them
Etc.
