The shape of the tracked universe
As of 28 August 2026, our platform tracks 2,146 companies across eight sectors. The distribution is lopsided by design and by market reality: Technology alone accounts for 588 names — roughly 27% of everything we follow — followed by Industrials (416), Healthcare (358), and Basic Materials (288). The tail runs through Consumer Cyclical (157), Financials (128), Energy (126), and Communication Services (85).
That ranking by company count tells a cleaner story than the dollar figures do, and it is where we'll anchor the analysis.
Technology sets the pace
No surprise at the top. The Technology cohort is anchored by the familiar megacaps — Apple, Microsoft, and NVIDIA — alongside the semiconductor and enterprise-software supporting cast such as AMD, Intel, and Salesforce. With nearly six hundred names, this is the deepest bench we cover, spanning chip designers, foundry-adjacent suppliers, and SaaS. For anyone building a diversified sleeve, Technology offers the most breadth to pick from, but also the most correlated risk when the AI-and-semis trade moves as a bloc.
Industrials and Healthcare fill out the next tier. Industrials mixes blue-chip names like Honeywell with newer aviation plays such as Archer Aviation, while Healthcare pairs defensive giants — Johnson & Johnson, UnitedHealth, AbbVie — with smaller, more speculative biotech and health-tech tickers.
A genuinely global field
The sample names reveal how far the coverage reaches beyond U.S. exchanges. We see Shanghai (.SS), Hong Kong (.HK), Taiwan (.TW), Korea's KOSDAQ (.KQ), Toronto (.TO), Australia (.AX), London (.L), Frankfurt (.F), and India's NSE (.NS). Basic Materials in particular leans international, dominated by miners and fertiliser producers listed well outside New York. Investors watching this universe should expect cross-listings — Tesla and Alibaba, for instance, appear under multiple tickers — and treat sector membership as a global rather than a U.S.-only signal.
A necessary caveat on the cap figures
Honesty demands a flag: the reported total market-cap numbers do not hold up to scrutiny. Consumer Cyclical is listed at roughly $575bn despite containing Amazon and Tesla — implausibly low for two companies of that size. Meanwhile Financials and Energy carry totals that dwarf every other sector by orders of magnitude. These figures are almost certainly the product of unit mismatches or cross-listing double-counts, not real relative weight. Until that is reconciled, we would not use these totals to rank sectors by value.
What to watch
Three things. First, Technology's sheer weight means universe-level performance will track the AI and semiconductor cycle closely. Second, the international tail — especially in Materials and Industrials — introduces currency and disclosure variance that a U.S.-centric investor can underestimate. Third, and most immediately, the market-cap data needs cleaning before it can support any weighting or allocation decision. Counts we trust; dollars we verify.
