About Italy 40 (FTSE MIB)
The Italy 40, also known as the FTSE MIB, is an equity index representing major companies listed on Italy's stock market. It provides a benchmark for Italian share performance across several industries. The index is quoted in points, while the supplied ITA40 CFD contract size is 1 × index, expressed in EUR per point.
The FTSE MIB combines exposure to Italy's domestic economy with businesses whose revenues extend beyond the country. Banking, energy and industrial companies give the benchmark distinct sensitivities to interest rates, commodity markets and global demand. Italian government bond conditions also matter because changes in financing costs can influence sentiment towards banks and the wider equity market.
On Xellion's MT5 platform, ITA40 is traded as a CFD, allowing a position to be long or short without owning the underlying shares. Trading hours are nearly 24 hours, Monday to Friday, with a daily break; activity is generally strongest during Milan hours.
