About Russell U.S. Indexes
A complete U.S. market view
Russell U.S Indexes are the leading U.S. equity benchmarks for institutional investors. Our broad range of U.S. indexes allow investors to track current and historical market performance by specific size, investment style and other market characteristics.
All Russell U.S. Indexes are subsets of the Russell 3000® Index, which includes the well-known large cap Russell 1000® Index and small cap Russell 2000® Index.
Research-driven innovation
Since launching our research-based U.S. indexes in 1984, we continue to create products that give investors an edge in the complex investment universe.
In 1987, based on research showing that major investing styles move in and out of favor over time, we developed separate benchmarks for tracking growth and value stocks. This groundbreaking innovation has now become industry standard. Today, Russell is a leading provider of comprehensive equity style indexes.
