The AUS200 Index CFD is a good way to make long or short investments in the Australian stock market within any time frame.

This is also a good way to profit from rising and falling commodity demand.

During the global financial crisis in 2008 and 2009, the AUS200 index fell by more than 55%. Since then, the AUS200 index has been growing steadily, but it has not yet reached the historical high of 6,852. Australia is one of the world’s leading producers of oil and iron ore resources.
