Stoxx 600

The STOXX Europe 600 Index, also known as the STOXX 600, is a stock market index that is designed to track the performance of the 600 largest companies in the European stock market. The index includes companies from 18 countries in the European region, and it is considered to be a broad-based benchmark of the European equity market.

The STOXX 600 is calculated by STOXX Limited, a subsidiary of Deutsche Boerse Group, and it is based on the market capitalization of the companies included in the index. The index is reviewed and rebalanced on a quarterly basis, and companies are added or removed based on their market capitalization, liquidity, and other criteria. The index is widely used as a benchmark for actively managed funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that track the European stock market. It covers a wide range of sectors and countries, providing a broad overview of the European equity market.
