Benchmark

Benchmark is a measure to what you compare your fund’s returns with to judge its performance.

A benchmark can be the average performance of funds similar to yours or a broad index of the investments your fund usually picks from.

The S&P 500 index is a good benchmark for funds that buy large-company stocks.
