A default value (also blue chip or blue chip is called) in the stock market being a high turnover share of a large company .
General
The term is not strictly defined; Often other characteristics such as high market capitalization , multinational company , first-class credit rating , membership of certain stock indices , solid financial figures or high profitability are associated with this term. Opposite are the secondary stocks .
Stock indices
The stock indices, which include the strongest companies in a country or an economic region in terms of turnover and / or market capitalization for a specific country ( e.g. DAX , Dow Jones Industrial Average , EURO STOXX 50 and SMI ), consist partially or completely of standard values depending on the perspective.
