 Lesson
Market Indices for Stocks
1 and Bonds

Learning how to invest your money is indispensable for your future. One of the
primary benefits of investing in the stock market is the chance to grow your money.

You have learned from your previous modules on how to find the dividend per share,
determine the stock yield ratio and compare two or more investments. This module
will help you analyze the different market indices for stocks and bonds and interpret
the theory of efficient markets.

What’s In

Let us start your journey by recalling the previous lessons you already learned about
stocks and bonds.

Activity 1

Study the given table and calculate the gain or loss for each item and record your
answer in the fourth column under “Change in Price”. In the fifth column, write
whether the change in price is a gain or loss.

Item Price Bought Price Sold Change in Price Gain or Loss

1 ₱1,552.50 ₱1,580.60
2 ₱468.90 ₱449.80
3 ₱345.70 ₱390.90

Notes to the Teacher

To be able to arrive in an accurate and similar answer, the teacher
must advise the learners to recall the formula in different markets
for stocks and bonds.

Module 10
 What’s New

Now, you already know how to find the dividend per share and determine the stock
yield ratio. Also, you already learned how to compare the two or more investments. I
am confident that you are now ready for the new lesson.

Stock on You!

The table below shows how information about stocks can be presented (values are
hypothetical).

A. Use the Stocks for AAA to answer the following questions:

1. Give the highest and lowest prices for the past 52 weeks.
2. Give the highest and lowest prices for AAA shares yesterday.
3. What was the dividend per share last year?
4. What was the closing price on the last trading day?
5. What was the closing price the day before the last trading day?

B. Use the table to answer the following questions:

1. During the past 52 weeks, which stocks in the table sold at the highest
price? At the lowest price?
2. How many shares of EEE were traded?
3. Which stocks have the highest and lowest shares were traded for the
day?

6 CO_Q2_General Mathematics SHS

Module 10
 What is It

In the previous activity, first, you need to analyze the information included in the
stock table. To find the highest price for the past 52 weeks, you need to look under
the heading 52-WK-HIGH. The price is given as 74.30. Thus, the highest selling price
of the stock in the past 52 weeks was ₱74.30.

To find the lowest price for the past 52 weeks, you need to look under the heading
52-WK-LOW. The price is given as 68. Thus, the lowest selling price for a share of
AAA stock for the past 52 weeks was ₱68.00. To find the highest and lowest prices
for the shares yesterday, look under the heading HIGH and LOW we have the
numbers 70 and 69.50 respectively. Thus, the highest and lowest prices for AAA
shares were ₱70. and ₱69.50. Looking at the heading DIV, we have the entry 0.70.
Thus, the dividend per share last year was 0.70.

Going back to the table, to find the closing price in the last trading day look under
the heading CLOSE, the number given is 70.25. Thus, when the stock exchange
closed in the last trading, the price was ₱70.25. The closing price the day before the
last trading day is the difference between CLOSE and NETCHG, thus we have ₱70.25
– ₱0.10 = ₱70.15.

To answer the following questions in letter B you need to compare all the information
or data in the table. During the past 52 weeks, the BBB stock sold at the highest
price ₱115 and EEE stock sold at the lowest price ₱31.60. To find the total shares
were traded of EEE look under the heading VOLUME, referring to sales volume and
the number given was 1500. In this case stock EEE sold 1,500 shares of 100 which
is equal to 150,000 shares. The BBB stock has the highest shares were traded with
10,700 shares of 100 which is equal to 1,070,000 and CCC stock was the lowest
shares were traded with 500 shares of 100 which is equal to 50,000.

For better understanding, study the definition of the related terms involving market
indices for stocks and bonds and analyze the given examples.

7 CO_Q2_General Mathematics SHS

Module 10
Definition:

The measure of a portion of the stock market is called the stock market index.

One of the examples is the PSE Composite Index or PSEi. It is composed of 30

companies carefully selected to present the general movement of market prices.

The up and down movement in percent change over time can indicate how the index
is performing.

Sector indices, indices that representing a particular sector.

Examples: financial institutions, industrial corporations, holding firms, service
corporations, mining/ oil, property.

The stock index can be a standard by which investors can compare the performance
of their stocks. A financial institution may want to compare its performance with
those others. This can be done by comparing it with the “financials” index.

Stock Index Tables

Stock indices are reported in the business section of magazines or newspapers, as

well as online. Here is the example of the stock index table that shows how a list of
index values is typically presented.

Value – it refers to the value of index

Chg – change of the index value from the previous trading day (the difference
between the value today and value yesterday)

%Chg – ratio of Chg to Val (Chg divided by Val)

Stock Tables

It is necessary to know and how to read the data or information in stocks and it
can be presented in the table. (values are hypothetical)

31.60 23.25 EEE 30.00 27.80 1.70 1500 30.00 0.30

We will use the headings and the first row of the table to explain each column
and this serves as an example.

STOCK • The heading STOCK is a three-letter symbol the company using for
AAA trading. Example AAA

52- • The heading 52–WK–HIGH is the highest selling price of the stock
WK- in the past 52 weeks. The highest price at which AAA stock traded
HIGH during the past 52 weeks was ₱74.30.
74.3

52-
• The heading 52–WK–LOW is the lowest selling price of the stock in
WK-
the past 52 weeks. The lowest price at which AAA stock traded
LOW
during the past 52 weeks was ₱68
68

HIGH • The heading HIGH is the highest selling price of the stock on the
70 last trading day. The selling price of AAA stock in the last trading
day was ₱70.

LOW • The heading LOW is the lowest selling price of the stock on the last
69.5 trading day. The selling price of AAA stock in the last trading day
was ₱69.50.

DIV • The heading DIV is the dividend per share last year. The dividend
.70 per share last year of AAA stock was 0.70

• The heading VOL is the number of shares (in hundreds) traded in

VOL
the last trading day. In this case, stock AAA sold 9050 shares of 100
9050
which is equal to 905,000 shares.

9 CO_Q2_General Mathematics SHS

Module 10
CLOSE • The heading CLOSE is the closing price on the last trading days.
The closing price of AAA stock in the last trading day was ₱70.25.
70.25

NET • The heading NETCHG is the net change between the last two trading
CHG days. In the case AA, the net change is 0.10. The closing price the
0.10 day before the last trading day is ₱70.25 – 0.10 = ₱70.15

Buying or Selling Stocks

To sell his stock is another way of a shareholder to earn an income. A broker may be
used to buy or sell stocks. Nowadays, most of the transactions are done by making
a phone call to a registered broker or by logging on to a reputable online platform.
Those with accounts in online trading platforms may often encounter a table such
as the following.

Bid Ask/Offer
Size Price Price Size
122 354,100 21.60 21.80 20,000 1
9 81,700 21.55 21.90 183,500 4
42 456,500 21.50 22.15 5,100 1
2 12,500 21.45 22.25 11,800 4
9 14,200 21.40 22.30 23,400 6

In the table, the terms mean the following:

Bid Size – the number of individual buy orders and the total number of shares they
wish to buy.

Bid Price – the price that buyers are willing to pay for the stock

Ask Price - the price that the sellers of the stock are willing to sell the stock

Ask Size – how many individual sell orders have been placed in the online platform
and the total number of shares these sellers wish to sell.

Look at the table above, the first row under Bid means that there are a total of 122
traders who wish to buy a total of 354,100 shares at ₱21.60 per share. On the other
hand, the first row under Ask means that just one trader is willing to sell his/her
20,000 shares at a price of ₱21.80 per share.

Bond Market Indices

A bond market index is a measure of a portion of a bond market. A bond is a form

of long – term investment issued by a corporation or government where the purchaser
becomes a creditor of the company. A bondholder is the one who holds a corporation
or government bond.

The main platform for bonds or fixed-income securities in the Philippines is the
Philippine Dealing and Exchange Corporation (or PDEx). Unlike stock indices that
are associated with virtually every stock market in the world, bond market indices
are far less common. Other than certain regional bond indices that have sub-indices
covering the Philippines, our bond market does not typically compute a bond market
index. Instead, the market rates produced from the bond market are interest rates
that may be used as benchmarks for other financial instruments.

The Bond Market and Government Bonds

Government bonds are sold out to banks and other brokers and dealers every
Monday by Bureau of Treasury. It depends on their terms (or tenors), these bonds
are also called treasury bills (t – bills), treasury notes (t-notes), or treasury bonds (t-
bonds). On the day right after the auction, the news agencies are normally reported
the resulting coupon rates and the total amount sold for these bonds. Since these
bond transactions involve large amounts, these bonds are usually limited to banks,
insurance firms, and other financial institutions. The banks may then resell these
bonds to their investors.

Although the coupon rate for bonds is fixed, bond prices fluctuate because they are
traded among investors in what is called the secondary market. These prices are
determined by supply and demand, the prevailing interest rates, as well as other
market forces. As the price of the bond may increase or decrease, some investors
may choose to sell back to banks the bonds they acquired before their maturity to
cash in their gains even before maturity.

Despite the fact that bond investing is considered safer than stock investing, there
is still some risk involved. The most extreme scenario is a default by the issuer. In
this case, the investor can lose not only the coupons but even the money invested in

11 CO_Q2_General Mathematics SHS

Module 10
the bond. Bond investors should thus be aware of the financial condition of the issuer
of the bond and prevailing market conditions.

52-WK-HIGH = ₱69
2. Highest Price = ₱71
Lowest Price = ₱67.90
3. Dividend per share = ₱3.50
4. YLD% = 2.5%
5. Closing Price = ₱72.30
6. Closing Price (the day before the last trading day) = ₱72.30 - ₱0.30 = ₱72

12 CO_Q2_General Mathematics SHS

Module 10
For Stock GGG:

1. 52-WK-HIGH = ₱118
52-WK-HIGH = ₱100
2. Highest Price = ₱115.20
Lowest Price = ₱114.30
3. Dividend per share = ₱1.40
4. YLD% = 3.1%
5. Closing Price = ₱115.00
6. Closing Price (the day before the last trading day) = ₱115.00 + ₱0.10 =
₱115.10
7. During the past 52 weeks, the GGG stock sold at the highest price ₱118 and
FFF stock sold at the lowest price ₱75.
8. The total shares were traded of look under the heading volume, referring to
sales volume and the number given was 10,500. In this case stock GGG sold
10,500 shares of 100 which is equal to 1,050,000 shares.
9. The FFF stock has the lowest shares were traded with 190 shares of 100 which
is equal to 19,000 shares.

Example 2

Rachel owns 2,000 shares of a company A at ₱980 per share. She also owns
15 000 shares for company B at ₱250 per share. In which company is the total value
of her share greater? Explain how you know which is greater.

To calculate the total value of her share:

Company A
No. of shares x Selling Price = Total Price
2,000 x ₱980 = ₱1,960,000
Company B

No. of shares x Selling Price = Total Price

15,000 x ₱250 = ₱3,750,000

Therefore, the greater value of her share is in company B with 15,000 at ₱250
per share, its total value is ₱3,750,000. To find which company will give a greater
value of share multiply the number of shares to its selling price then compare the
final answer.
