About US 30 - Cash

The US 30 is based on the leading US benchmark share market index, which contains 30 major companies. These include blue-chip stocks like Apple, Coca-Cola, Goldman Sachs, Microsoft and Visa. The index is one of three major indices within the US and one of the most popularly traded assets worldwide, where each constituent represents a benchmark standard for its industry. It's not calculated by market capitalisation; instead, it’s price-weighted, meaning that the total value of the index reflects the sum of each share of stock, divided by the divisor. Therefore, all components have the same influence on the index’s value. Spread bet or trade CFDs on US 30 - Cash.

US 30 - Cash FAQs

Can you trade on US 30 index funds?

There are several index funds that are based on the benchmark index measuring the performance of 30 leading US companies. Two of the largest include SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF [DIA] and iShares Dow Jones US ETF [IYY], both of which are available on our Next Generation platform.

Which companies have been removed from the US 30 index?

Companies that have been removed over the years include General Motors, AT&T, Pfizer, ExxonMobil, and General Electric, the latter being one of the original constituents when the index was created in 1896. You can still spread bet or trade CFDs on all of these ex-component stocks by opening an account with us.

Is the US 30 a good indicator of the US economy?

The index that the US 30 is based on is often criticised for being unrepresentative of the US economy, since it only measures a small number of companies. It’s also share price-weighted, meaning that potentially overvalued stocks may have more of an influence on its performance. Some investors instead prefer to trade on our US SPX 500 – Cash instrument, which is based on another major index measuring 500 of the biggest market cap companies, as this may provide a more rounded overview of the US economy.
