CME S&P 500/Citigroup Growth™ futures provide a way to quickly and efficiently manage exposure to a narrower segment of the stock market – approximately half of the S&P 500 companies categorized as growth-style stocks. Many investors today engage in style-oriented investing strategies for their portfolios, and this product complements those strategies. This contract tracks the S&P/Citigroup Growth Index, which was launched in 2005 (along with a Value Index) to provide investors with two distinct yet complementary style perspectives for portfolio construction.
