INDICE FTSE TIENE DOS SIGNIFICADOS DISTINTOS
Explanation:
1)Indice bursátil del Financial Times.
2)Indice Footsie (Eurotrack)
I would choose the first one, since Eurotrack is not mentioned in the context. The Eurotrack 100 and 200 indexes refer to the 100 or 200 highest trading shares in the London Exchange.
