FAQ

What is market capitalization?

Market capitalization is the dollar value of all a company’s shares in circulation (Investopedia, https://www.investopedia.com/terms/m/marketcapitalization.asp).

How does the calculator work?

It multiplies current share price by shares outstanding. “The market capitalization of a company is equal to the current market price of a share multiplied by the total number of shares outstanding” (SEC Investor Bulletin, 2022).

Why track market cap?

Market cap shows company size, aids risk assessment, and supports diversification decisions (S&P Dow Jones Indices, 2023).

How often should I recalculate?

Update whenever the share price changes; U.S. equities trade 9:30 a.m.–4 p.m. ET on weekdays (NYSE Trading Hours, 2023).

Can market cap change without new shares?

Yes. Price fluctuations alone move market cap, even if the share count stays constant (Nasdaq Glossary, 2023).

How does market cap differ from enterprise value?

Enterprise value adds debt and subtracts cash to reflect takeover cost, while market cap ignores capital structure (Damodaran, 2022).

Does a higher market cap mean lower risk?

Larger firms usually show lower volatility; the S&P 500’s largest quartile has 30 % less annualized variance (Morningstar, 2023).

Where can I find shares outstanding?

Check the latest Form 10-K or 10-Q filed with the SEC; Item 1 lists share counts (SEC EDGAR, 2023).
