UKX Live priceWhat is FTSE 100
The FTSE 100 tracks the 100 largest companies listed in London. It is the headline measure of the UK stock market.
Many of its members are large, global businesses that earn much of their money abroad, so the index is sensitive to the pound: a weaker pound can actually lift it.
The FTSE 100 leans toward energy, mining, banking and consumer names, giving it a different flavour from tech-heavy US indices.
