FTSE stands for Financial Times Stock Exchange and often it is abbreviated as footsie. Actually, it is a share index of 100 companies which are listed on the London Stock Exchange on the basis of their Highest Market Capitalization.

All the information of this index is calculated in real time and when the market is open it is published every 15 seconds.100 largest high standing and high market value companies are included in the index of FTSE 100. Most of the companies included in the index are international companies so that’s why the movements of the index are the fairly weak indicator of the economy of UK. FTSE 250 is the better indicator of UK economy because it contains mostly UK based companies and a smaller number of International companies are included in this index. The constituents of this index can be determined quarterly such as Wednesday after the first Friday of the month.

Weighting in FTSE 100
Market Capitalization is the way or method through which FTSE indices share prices are weighted. So that larger or higher standing companies which are included in the index of FTSE make more of a difference in the index as compared to the smaller companies included in the index. Sometimes trader uses the formula for the purpose of calculation which is created by FTSE Group. All the shares which are available for the trading were represented by a factor which is called “Free Float Adjustment Factor”. After all, this factor is then rounded up to the 5% of nearest multiples. If any trader wants to find Free-Float capitalization of any company then it is a must for the trader to find firstly its market cap. For finding market cap of any company just follow the simple formula “Number of Shares*Shares price”. After finding market cap multiply it by its free-float factor. Restricted stocks such as stocks held by company insiders are not included in free-float capitalization.
The constituents of the index are determined quarterly; the largest companies in the FTSE 250 Index are promoted if their market capitalisation would place them in the top ninety companies of the FTSE 100 Index.
Component companies must meet a number of requirements set out by the FTSE Group, including having a full listing on the London Stock Exchange with Sterling or Euro denominated price on the Stock Exchange Electronic Trading Service, and meeting certain tests on nationality, free float, and liquidity.
