Introducing the Schwab Trading Activity Index™
The Schwab Trading Activity Index™ (STAX) is a revolutionary tool that provides investors with a unique perspective on real investing behaviors. By analyzing the trading activity of Schwab clients, STAX offers a deeper understanding of investor sentiments and risk tolerance.
Understanding How STAX Works
STAX utilizes data from millions of Schwab accounts to generate monthly scores reflecting investor behaviors and risk preferences over the past 30 days. This comprehensive analysis includes a synthesis of holdings, positions, trading activity, and other relevant information, providing valuable insights into how clients are positioned in the market.
Leveraging STAX Data for Informed Decision-Making
Investors can track STAX trends over time and integrate this information with other market indicators and research to develop a holistic view of retail investor sentiment. An increase in the STAX score from month to month may indicate a growing bullish sentiment among investors, while a decrease could suggest a shift towards bearish or less bullish sentiments.

Important Considerations and Disclaimer
While STAX provides valuable insights into investor behaviors, it is essential to note that historical data alone should not dictate investment decisions. Investors should consult multiple sources, evaluate their financial positions and goals, and conduct thorough research before making independent investment choices. Additionally, please be aware that STAX is not a tradable index and should not be used as a sole indicator of future trading volume or financial performance for Schwab clients.
