Make your own forecastAbout SMI
The SMI, short for Swiss Market Index, is Switzerland's leading stock market benchmark. Calculated by SIX Swiss Exchange in Zurich and launched in 1988, it comprises the 20 largest and most liquid companies in the Swiss equity market. Members are selected on the basis of free-float market capitalization and trading volume, and the composition is reviewed once a year.
The SMI is a price index, meaning dividends are not included in its value. It is shaped by large multinational groups from healthcare, food, financial services and industry, many of which generate most of their sales outside Switzerland. To keep a few very large companies from dominating the index, individual weightings are capped. The SMI is quoted in Swiss francs, so for investors outside Switzerland, including U.S. investors, movements in the franc against their home currency also affect returns. Because of its heavy weighting in pharmaceuticals and consumer staples, the index is often viewed as relatively defensive compared with more cyclical markets.
The current level of the SMI is 15,131.10 (+0.51% vs. the previous close). In today's trading the high was 15,193.70 and the low 15,108.06.
How the Quantum Forecast works
Research from quantum physics. The models are the result of several years of research at the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics and LMU Munich and were transferred to the stock market.
Spectra and correlations. Frequency spectra are calculated from current prices, and the relationships between price swings and volatility are analyzed. This produces the forecast and the risk assessment.
Detecting herd behavior. Models of phase transitions from statistical physics describe when investors collectively fall into panic or euphoria – an early sign of possible crash situations.
Swarm intelligence. User forecasts are checked once their time frame has expired and feed into the model, weighted by their hit rate.
The range band shows the typical fluctuation around the forecast. More on quantum physics & swarm intelligence
