Like it or not the FTSE 100 is an important indicator of economic confidence in UK plc. Also, unless you are a public sector worker (well I guess the chances of that are increasingly higher these days with the socialists in) any pension fund you belong to will have a substantial amount invested in FTSE 100 companies.
Even if you are a public sector worker with a guaranteed pension, this will only be of any value if there are still some people outside of the government paying tax. these people need jobs and a lot of them are going to depend on the economic outlook for the country being rosy enough to attract risk investors.

Okay, it does go up and down. That is normal. What is the connect with how you feel?
Surely, you don't think they just peg a price or that it only goes up, or every third thursday it goes down by exactly 2 percent. Do you know what it is and what it is composed of? Maybe you might be better off shopping certificate of deposit rates at banks instead.
