Standard & Poor's 600

This small cap index consists of 600 domestic stocks chosen for market size, liquidity, and industry group representation. It is a market weighted index (stock price x shares outstanding), with each stock affecting the index in proportion to its market value. The S&P 600 figure is presented as a total return. For more information, visit the Standard & Poor's Web site.

Note: We assume reinvestment of dividends on the last day of the month rather than everyday during the month. This may account for differences between the index returns published in Morningstar Office and the index returns published elsewhere.
