Of Note: One cannot 'buy' an Index. Some Indexes have a 'ticker' and are listed on various stock markets but one cannot 'buy' this ticker symbol, such being for reference purposes only. Some firms offer ETFs based on the ticker or on an unlisted Index which one can invest in. This list of ETFs is only basic and not a comprehensive list. The rapid growth of popularity of ETFs means that this page will not be an up-to-date list.
