| Construction of the S&P GSCI™ |
Three S&P GSCI™ indices are published: excess return, total return and spot. The excess return index measures the returns accrued from investing in uncollateralized nearby commodity futures, the total return index measures the returns accrued from investing in fully-collateralized nearby commodity futures, and the spot index measures the level of nearby commodity prices. Thus, the excess return and total return indices provide useful representations of returns available to investors from investing in the S&P GSCI™. In fact, the total return (i.e., the return on the S&P GSCI™ total return index) is the measure of commodity returns that is completely comparable to returns from a regular investment in the S&P 500 (with dividend reinvestment) or a government bond, while the return on the excess return index is comparable to the return on the S&P 500 above cash.
