What is Sensex?
What is Nifty ?
Difference between these two
Answer Posted / chandrika
The Sensex is an "index". What is an index? An index is basically an indicator. It gives you a general idea about whether most of the stocks have gone up or most of the stocks have gone down.
The Sensex is an indicator of all the major companies of the BSE(Bombay Stock Exchange).
The Nifty is an indicator of all the major companies of the NSE(National Stock Exchange).
If the Sensex goes up, it means that the prices of the stocks of most of the major companies on the BSE have gone up. If the Sensex goes down, this tells you that the stock price of most of the major stocks on the BSE have gone down.
Just like the Sensex represents the top stocks of the BSE, the Nifty represents the top stocks of the NSE.
