Index
FTSE 100
What is the FTSE 100?
The hundred largest companies listed on the London Stock Exchange, weighted by market value — the UK's headline index, pronounced "footsie."
We never publish the index level; it is not our data. What you can trade is EWU, the iShares MSCI United Kingdom ETF; the chart below is EWU via TradingView. EWU tracks the broad UK market (MSCI United Kingdom), not the FTSE's own hundred names.
The line runs 48.31 USD on 11 August through 47.22 USD on 6 November, on a scale from 44 to 50. Days the market did not trade hold the previous close, flat.
