NSE New Indices - Alpha, High Beta, Low Volatility

NSE, National Stock Exchange, the country's premier stock exchange, has launched three new indices - the CNX Alpha Index, the CNX High Beta Index and the CNX Low Volatility Index.

These are strategic indices, which are designed on the basis of quantitative models / investment strategies to provide a single value for the aggregate performance of a number of companies. The companies must rank within the top 300 companies by average free-float market capitalization and aggregate turnover for the last six months.

CNX Alpha Index:
CNX Alpha index aims to measure the performance of securities listed on NSE with high Alphas, which are measured on the basis of their risk-adjusted value. Weights of securities in the index are assigned based on the alpha values. Security with highest alpha in the index gets highest weight.

CNX High Beta Index:
CNX High Beta Index aims to measure the performance of the stocks listed on NSE that h ave High Beta. Beta can be referred to as a measure of the sensitivity of stock returns to market returns. This index can be used by those who are looking for high-risk-high-return category of stocks.

CNX Low Volatility Index:
CNX Low Volatility Index aims to measure the performance of the least volatile securities listed on NSE. This index can be used to create a portfolio of least-volatile securities which shall curb the downside during the bear phases.

All the above indices have 50 stocks each in their respective index and they will be calculated on an end-of-day basis and their closing value would be available the NSE.The EOD Data and stocks comprising of these indices are available in NSE .

Team Work - Meaning and Tips for better Team Work

A single brain is not always capable of making key decisions on its own. To come up with an efficient solution, an individual requires the help and advice of others. A team is established when individuals get together on a common platform with the common goal of completing a task. To guarantee optimum compatibility, team members should ideally come from similar backgrounds and have a single aim. To provide their best, the team members must complement each other and function as a single unit in tight cooperation.

Scientists discover a new theory / The fundamental property of light – 150 years after Maxwell

Light plays a vital role in our everyday lives and technologies based on light are all around us. So we might expect that our understanding of light is pretty settled. But scientists have just uncovered a new fundamental property of light that gives new insight into the 150-year-old classical theory of electromagnetism and which could lead to applications manipulating light at the nanoscale. It is unusual for a pure-theory physics paper to make it into the journal Science. So when one does, it’s worth a closer look. In the new study, researchers bring together one of physics' most venerable set of equations – those of James Clerk’s Maxwell’s famous theory of light – with one of the hot topics in modern solid-state physics: the quantum spin Hall effect and topological insulators . To understand what the fuss is about, let’s first consider the behaviour of electrons in the quantum spin Hall effect. Electrons possess an intrinsic spin as if they were tiny spinning-tops,
