This is a list of European stock exchanges.
There are two major pan-European stock exchanges:
- Euronext, which is headquartered in Amsterdam and was formed from stock exchanges in Belgium, France, the Netherlands and Portugal and is currently the second-largest stock market in Europe (and with the New York Stock Exchange, forms the first global exchange);
- OMX, which is composed of Scandinavian and Baltic stock exchanges:
- Nordic Market (link), currently composed of bourses in Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Iceland with activity in Norway and the Faroe Islands;
- Baltic Market (link), currently composed of bourses in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania;
- First North (link), an alternative exchange based in Stockholm, Sweden.
There exist regional stock exchange companies, such as the Deutsche Börse Group of Germany or The London Stock Exchange and PLUS Markets of the United Kingdom. Regional stock market investment support is common, as in the case of the Vienna Stock Exchange's sponsorship of the Budapest Stock Exchange in Hungary.

“Every morning I woke in dread, waiting for the day nurse to go on her rounds and announce from the list of names in her hand whether or not I was for shock treatment, the new and fashionable means of quieting people and of making them realize that orders are to be obeyed and floors are to be polished without anyone protesting and faces are to be made to be fixed into smiles and weeping is a crime.”
—Janet Frame (b. 1924)
“I made a list of things I have
to remember and a list
of things I want to forget,
but I see they are the same list.”
—Linda Pastan (b. 1932)
“In European thought in general, as contrasted with American, vigor, life and originality have a kind of easy, professional utterance. American—on the other hand, is expressed in an eager amateurish way. A European gives a sense of scope, of survey, of consideration. An American is strained, sensational. One is artistic gold; the other is bullion.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“A man acquainted with history may, in some respect, be said to have lived from the beginning of the world, and to have been making continual additions to his stock of knowledge in every century.”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
“When a girl marries, she exchanges the attentions of all the other men of her acquaintance for the inattention of just one.”
—Helen Rowland (1875–1950)
