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