# European Stock Market Indexes

## Direct Answer

> European indexes split along two lines: national benchmarks that track one country's listed companies, and regional benchmarks that span the continent or the euro area. The two answer different questions and are not substitutes.

## Every european stock market indexes in this group

A national index is heavily shaped by which industries happen to be listed in that country, which is why single-country European benchmarks can be far more concentrated by sector than their size suggests.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### How many european stock market indexes does Swoopr cover?

Swoopr covers 50 indexes in this group, each with its own page explaining what it measures and how it is built.

### Are index constituent lists published here?

No. Index providers license constituent data and Swoopr holds no such licence, so each index page links to the provider for current membership.

### Does a higher index level mean a better market?

No. Index levels are not comparable across indexes. A level is the output of one index's own formula and base value, so comparing two levels directly measures nothing.
