Work in progress

Market Time Lapse explores how company and industry market caps and valuations change over time. Move through monthly snapshots, play the timeline, and select a company to explore its market cap and valuation history.

A separate US-listed large caps view covers 1,000 issuers, including large new listings without waiting for S&P membership. The S&P 500, DAX, CAC 40, FTSE 100 and Nikkei 225 retain their own views. The country comparison places the S&P 500, DAX, CAC 40, FTSE 100 and Nikkei 225 side by side on one USD scale. You can filter by sector, switch between tickers and company names, compare market size on a fixed scale, and adjust historical market caps for inflation.

Open Market Time Lapse

Market Time Lapse showing 1,000 US-listed companies grouped into sector circles, sized by market capitalization and colored by forward P/E, with a monthly timeline below.

This is an evolving project using saved public-source data, not a live feed. Coverage varies by company, market and date; missing values are shown explicitly in the app. Historical company views use the selected current roster; they do not reconstruct past index or top-1,000 membership. Source details and methodology are included in the tool.
