Russell Fundamental US Index Outperforms Russell 3000(R) Index as Equities Continue Rally From 2009 Lows
(firmenpresse) - SEATTLE, WA -- (Marketwired) -- 08/07/13 -- Since reaching a post-financial crisis low in March 2009 (389.61 on 3/9/09), the Russell 3000® Index has returned 162% as of 8/2/13. During this same period of time, the Russell Fundamental US Index (based on the Russell 3000 Index) is up over 196%. Unlike traditional market cap weighted indexes, the Russell Fundamental US Index selects and weights securities according to fundamental measures of company size: adjusted sales, operating cash flow, and dividends plus buybacks.
"While Russell's core indexes have continued to hit new highs through the summer, in some cases we are seeing even greater performance from our smart beta indexes such as the Russell Fundamental Indexes," said David Koenig, CFA, FRM, investment strategist with Russell Indexes. "Investors using strategies based on fundamentally weighted indexes may be able to gain differentiated beta exposures while maintaining the diversification, transparency and liquidity of traditional indexes."
