How to read the benchmark

The SM Global Market Index is a research benchmark built from fresh, eligible major-market indexes using completed-session returns. It is designed to expose global direction, breadth, dispersion and leadership without allowing the largest market to dominate the result. One-session exchange publication lags remain eligible; feeds more than two weeks behind the active dataset are excluded until their daily history resumes.
