The Financial Times Stock Exchange 100 Index, also called the FTSE 100 Index, FTSE 100, FTSE, or, informally, the "Footsie", is a stock market index of 100 of the most highly capitalised blue chip companies listed on the London Stock Exchange.
The FTSE 250 Index ( "Footsie") is a capitalisation-weighted index consisting of the 101st to the 350th largest companies listed on the London Stock Exchange, mostly covering the mid cap sector between large and small companies. The index contains a higher proportion of companies whose primary business is conducted in the UK, compared to the FTSE 100. Due to this, the FTSE 250 tends to be more representative of the strength of the UK economy than the FTSE 100. Promotions and demotions to and from the index occur quarterly in March, June, September, and December.
