What I think you may be referring to are "basis points". If that is the case, a basis point is essentially a fraction of a % (1/100). So, for every 1%, there are 100 basis points. If this did not answer your question, please let me know. If you are referring simply to "the market is up a half a point"... then that is just one dollar. There is no real reason for calling dollars points, it is just a tradition in US markets and are not the same as basis points.
0.4% . 100 basis points are equal to 1%
You can buy 100 wii points with $1. Hope that helped! :)
0,05 of a percentage point, i.e the difference of 0,05%. Basis points (bps) refer to the change of percentages. 1 bp = 0,01% change 1% change = 100 bps (The increase of Interest rate from 3,5% to 3.75% can be described as the increase by 25 basis points.)
It means that 1 US Dollar used to buy 6.5849 Yuan and now it buys 6.5952 (0.0103 more). So th USD is stronger and the CNY is weaker.
BPS = basis point. Definition: A unit for measuring a bonds yield that is equal to 1/100 of 1% of yield. Also known as "bips". Same as 1/10,000 of yield (1% divided by 100). For example, if a bond goes from 5.0% yield to 5.5% yield it is said to have increased 50 bps / 50 basis points
1 U.S Dollar = 63.73 Indian Rupees 1,000,000 U.S Dollars = 63,730,000 Indian Rupees. Keep in mind that currencies fluctuate on a constant basis, so these numbers are more of an estimation.
1 dollar is 2 tomans
1 us dollar = 1 Argentina dollar
The difference between these increases is that 1% increase gives the 101% increase of the original amount of points while 100% basis increase gives the 200% increase of the original amount of points.

A buck is a name for a dollar. So 1 dollar equals 1 buck.
