{{Short description|Stock market indices}} '''Russell indexes''' are a family of global [[stock market indices]] from [[FTSE Russell]] that allow investors to track the performance of distinct [[market segments]] worldwide. Many investors use [[mutual funds]] or [[exchange-traded fund]]s based on the FTSE Russell Indexes as a way of gaining exposure to certain portions of the U.S. [[stock market]]. Additionally, many investment managers use the Russell Indexes as [[benchmarking|benchmarks]] to measure their own performance. Russell's index design has led to more assets benchmarked to its U.S. index family than all other U.S. equity indexes combined.{{citation needed|date=July 2021}} The best-known index of the series is the [[Russell 2000]], which tracks US [[small-cap]] stocks and is made up of the bottom 2,000 stocks in the [[Russell 3000]] index.
