^ The World Service Top 20 is WBR's own real-time index showing what the value is now of $100 invested in 20 leading stocks in Europe and America in January 2000 - this is useful because it draws in the mood across the UK, Germany, France and US in one number, and is also a figure which demonstrates clearly the pain suffered by investors since the market peak in 2000 - it's currently around $70.
10 of the companies are based in Europe and 10 in the U.S. They are chosen to provide a range of industry sectors and avoid those companies which hold a potentially vulnerable monopoly in their market.
