{{short description|Czech stock market index}}
The '''PX Index''' (until March 2006 the '''PX 50''') is a [[capitalization-weighted index]] of major stocks that trade on the [[Prague Stock Exchange]]. It is calculated by the [[Vienna Stock Exchange]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Description of Indices {{!}} Prague Stock Exchange |url=https://www.pse.cz/en/indices/description-of-indices |access-date=2024-05-04 |website=[[Prague Stock Exchange]] |language=en}}</ref> At the time of its inception, the calculation start date for the index was set to the 5th April 1994 and its opening value was fixed at 1,000 points. At this time the index included 50 companies traded on the Prague Stock Exchange, being named accordingly as PX 50.

In 2014, the Prague Stock Exchange introduced the [[total return index]] '''PX-TR'''. It shares the same base as the PX Index but, unlike the PX index, the PX-TR takes [[dividends]] into account.<ref name=pxtr/>

== History ==
=== PX-50 ===
After an initial boom encouraged by [[voucher privatization]] (the top was in February 1994 retroactively calculated on 1245 points) the index started to decline fast, and ended the year 1994 with 557 points. In 1995 the decline continued (influenced by the [[1994 economic crisis in Mexico|Mexican crisis]], that discouraged foreign investors from emerging markets) and the index reached its first bottom on 29 June with 387 points. Then the index increased slowly and ended the year 1995 with 426 points. The slow increase continued in 1996 and the index reached its second top on 25 February 1997 with 629 points. In 1998, influenced by the [[1998 Russian financial crisis]], the index reached its historical bottom on 8 October with 316 points. In 1999 the index emerged back to 500 points. With the help of the [[dot-com bubble]] and starting banks privatization, the index reached its second top on 24 March 2000 with 691 points. With the end of dot-com bubble and the [[IPB Bank]] crisis, the index declined back to 500 points. In 2001, the index slightly decreased and after the [[September 11, 2001, attacks]] reached bottom on 17 September with 320 points. In 2002, the index slowly increased back to 500 points. In 2003 the index was rising and ended the year with 659 points. With the help of the Czech Republic [[European Union]] accession, the index continued rising in 2004. It reached 1000 points on 19 November and ended the year with 1032 points. The index continued rising in 2005 and ended the year with 1473 points.
