Benchmark
Stock indices like Nifty 50, Sensex, Nifty Bank, and others are often used as benchmarks to evaluate the performance of one or more stocks.
The onset of a bear market is generally in tandem with poor economic conditions.
Benchmarks are not just used for evaluating markets or securities, they can also be used to assess the performance of an investor or wealth manager. Here are some outcomes if the returns are:
- Greater than benchmark: the asset is doing considerably well (great)
- Same as benchmark: the asset is moving with the market (okay)
- Less than benchmark: the asset is performing poorly (bad)
