(Vienna) As of today, the Vienna Stock Exchange is launching new short and leverage indices on the leading Austrian index ATX, thus expanding its existing index offering. The short indices are based on the ATX Total Return (ATX TR) and the leverage indices on the ATX Net Total Return (ATX NTR). In addition to the existing levers of +/-2 and +4, clients can now also participate in the development of the ATX with levers of -4, +/-6, +/-8 and +/-10. With this expanded offer, the Vienna Stock Exchange is responding to the demand of international market participants.
Leverage indices refer to an existing index (reference index) and represent its performance with a leverage defined at index start. This leverage function allows the leverage index to participate disproportionately in the daily performance of the benchmark index in both positive and negative movements. If the lever is negative, one speaks of a short index.
