A stock market index measures the price performance of a group of shares from a stock exchange. They can be used as a benchmark of how the market, or a segment of it, is performing. The media often treat indices as indicators of market health.
The FTSE Small Cap lists the companies outside of the FTSE 350 index by market capitalisation traded on the London Stock Exchange (LSE).
The FTSE indices list the companies traded on the London Stock Exchange by market capitalisation (also referred to as market cap). The market cap is calculated by multiplying the company’s share price by the number of available shares. For example, if a company has 10 million shares selling for £100 each, it would have a market cap value of £1 billion.

FTSE indices, which list companies by market capitalisation traded on the London Stock Exchange (LSE):

When the FTSE is quoted as up it means the total market capitalisation value of all the listed companies added together is higher than the previous market close figure. Likewise, a drop is if the value has decreased on the previous market close.
When the FTSE hits a new high, this means the total worth of all the indexed companies at market close has increased beyond the previous highest figure in FTSE history.
The companies listed in the FTSE indices are reviewed every quarter, usually in March, June, September and December.
Any changes to the indices are based on the value of the companies at the close of business the night before the review.
