Some countries like India and The Philippines use WPI changes as a central measure of inflation . However, India and the United States now report a producer priceindex instead. The Wholesale PriceIndex or WPI is the price of a representative basket of wholesale goods. Some countries use the changes in this index to measure inflation in their economies, in particular India The Indian WPI figure is released weekly on every thursday and influences stock and fixed price markets. The Wholesale PriceIndex focuses on the price of goods traded between corporations, rather than goods bought by consumers, which is measured by the Consumer PriceIndex . The purpose of the WPI is to monitor price movements that reflect supply and demand in industry, manufacturing and construction. This helps in analyzing both macroeconomic and microeconomic conditions. Calculation of Wholesale PriceIndex The wholesale priceindex consists of over 2,400 commodities. The indicator tracks the price movement of each commodity individually. Based on this individual movement, the WPI is determined through the averaging principle. The following methods are used to compute the WPI Laspeyres Formula relative method It is the weighted arithmetic mean based on the fixed value based weights for the base period.

onesource article date June 2009 A price weighted index is a stock market index where each constituent makes up a fraction of the index that is proportional to its price. For a stock market index this implies that stock s are included in proportions based on their quoted prices. A stock trading at 100 will thus be making up 10 times more of the total index compared to a stock trading at 10. This is different from a Capitalization weighted index market weighted index where stocks are included based on the Stock equity market values of the underlying companies, i.e. the quoted stock price multiplied by the number of shares outstanding . The development of a price weighted index will not accurately reflect the evolution of the underlying market value s. This is so because the 100 stock above might be that of a small company and the 10 stock that of a large company. A change in the price quote of the small company will thus drive the price weighted index as it makes up a large part of the index while the combined market values will remain relatively unaffected without changes in the price quote of the large company. Moreover, constant rebalancing needs to take place. The quoted price for each stock used in the calculation of the index is redefined so that each index constituent has an appropriate weight in the index at each rebalancing date. An Adjustment factor is introduced to a stock, that is assigned to the stock at each rebalancing date, which allows for price weighting. For index component, the value would be ref Wikinvest How Stock Indices Work Price weighted adjustment factor formula via Wikinvest ref Adjustment Factor Index specific constant Z Number of shares of the stock Adjusted stock market value before rebalancing The Dow Jones Industrial Average is an example of a price weighted stock market index.

Merge from Commodity index fund date June 2010 A commodity priceindex is a fixed weight index or weighted average of selected commodity prices, which may be based on spot or futures prices. It is designed to be representative of the broad commodity asset class or a specific subset of commodities, such as energy or metals. The constituents in a commodity priceindex can be broadly grouped into the following categories Energy Metals Base Metals Precious Metals Agriculture Grains Softs Livestock Investors can choose to obtain a passive exposure to these commodity price indices through a total return swap . The advantages of a passive commodity index exposure include negative correlation with other asset classes such as equities and bonds, as well as protection against inflation . The disadvantages include a negative roll yield due to contango in certain commodities, although this can be reduced by active management techniques, such as reducing the weights of certain constituents e.g. precious and base metals in the index.

The Belgian Consumer PriceIndex commonly referred to as the Index is a list of prices of goods and services, kept by the Belgium Belgian Federal Government Service Economy. The Index is updated on a monthly basis, and reflects the evolution in the cost of living. The Belgian system tracks two indices the general Consumer PriceIndex and the Health Index . The latter uses the same basket of goods products as the former, with the exception of products which could be detrimental to health, such as cigarettes and petrol. Compensation for inflation In Belgium, many wages, pensions, property rental costs, insurance premium s, unemployment benefits, health insurance payments, etc. are by law tied to the Health Index. Some wages and benefits are adapted to the Index after a rise of the Index above a certain threshold. Other adjustments, like house rent or insurance premiums, are carried through on a yearly basis.
