Could anyone explain the difference between STOXX and STOXXE? Which is the right index for benchmarking European stocks?
Thanks.

$\begingroup$ Can you be more specific regarding where you see these monikers? There are actually dozens of STOXX indices. $\endgroup$– Tal FishmanCommented Nov 1, 2011 at 18:06

3$\begingroup$ There are a set of indices for Europe and for countries in the Eurozone, so .STOXX50 includes Sweden, Switzerland & UK, .STOXX50E doesn't. $\endgroup$– RichardCommented Nov 1, 2011 at 21:40

Stoxxe would be the benchmark for European stocks in Eur
Different data providers are using different symbols.
- Sx5e biggest 50 European Eur stocks
- Sx5p biggest 50 pan European stocks
- Sxxp biggest 60@ pan euro stocks - 200 large cap 200 mid cap and 200 small caps
- Sxxe would be all Eur stocks put of the sxxp - around 380 names
