  • 第二个缺点是，不像股票，指数期货是有到期日的，而且到期日多半很短，近的就在当月月底，远的也不过就是一年又两个月以后。(当然，如果此合约受到市场欢迎，只要有这方面的需求，交易所可推出更远的合约。)当我们自资买进股票、股价却不断下跌时，“不服输”(因此，不肯放手)的人可以把股票“收”起来，只要公司不倒，价格反弹的机会总是在的。期货就不同了，到期日一到，就得来个输赢总算帐。
    Compared with an actual investment in a basket of shares, taking a long position in SIF has another shortcoming. When the market drops, both shares and the long position in SIF will lose value. However, shares do not "expire" (unless the company goes bankrupt and is liquidated) and if an investor with the holding power decides to hold on to the shares, he can always do so. This however does not apply to SIF. Each SIF has a "maturity date" when any outstanding position in that contract must be closed. In other words, one can choose not to realise paper losses when one invests in shares; but, one will be forced to realise such losses with SIF contracts.
