As of 2 November 2026 the tracked universe spans 2,468 companies across eight sectors. Breadth of coverage, not just the mega-caps, is the story here — and a closer look at the figures surfaces a caution worth raising early.
Technology leads by headcount
Technology is the single largest sector with 656 names, roughly 27% of everything we track. It anchors the familiar large-caps — Apple, Microsoft, and NVIDIA — alongside the semiconductor and software cohort of AMD, Intel, and Salesforce. Industrials follows at 473 companies and Healthcare at 409, together with Technology accounting for nearly two-thirds of the universe. Johnson & Johnson, UnitedHealth, and AbbVie headline Healthcare; Honeywell and nVent Electric sit in Industrials beside newer entrants like Archer Aviation.
The smaller sectors by count are Communication Services (96), Energy and Financials (148 each), and Consumer Cyclical (184) — though these host some of the most heavily weighted public companies anywhere, from Alphabet and Meta to Berkshire Hathaway, Visa, Amazon, and Tesla.
The long tail is genuinely global
The sample names make clear that coverage reaches well past U.S. listings. Chinese tickers appear across sectors (Xiamen Solex, China XLX Fertiliser, Tencent, Alibaba), alongside Taiwan (Arch Meter), Korea (PenetriumBio), India (Reliance Industries), and a spread of Canadian, Australian, and London small-caps in Basic Materials and Energy.
One structural quirk stands out: the same company often appears under multiple listings. Tesla shows up as TL0.F and TL0.DE, Alphabet as both GOOGL and GOOG, and Novo Resources, Galantas Gold, and Obsidian Energy each surface twice across exchanges. Headcount-based sector weights are therefore inflated by cross-listings and should be read as coverage, not as a census of distinct businesses.
A market-cap caveat worth taking seriously
The per-sector market-cap totals tell a different — and frankly suspect — story. Financials reports an aggregate of about $159 trillion and Energy roughly $107 trillion, both dwarfing Technology's $23 trillion despite carrying a quarter of the company count. Basic Materials, with 354 names, shows $47 trillion against Consumer Cyclical's $0.6 trillion for 184 names.
Those numbers do not reconcile with real-world sector weights, and several exceed plausible global totals. The likeliest culprits are currency-conversion errors, double-counted cross-listings, or stale denominators feeding the aggregation. Either way, the figures are not yet trustworthy enough to drive allocation logic.
What to watch
For investors, the honest takeaway is that Technology's dominance by count is real and the international long tail is a genuine asset. For the platform, the market-cap column is the priority: before any sector tilt or screen relies on it, we should de-duplicate cross-listings and validate the FX pipeline. Good coverage is only useful once the aggregates behind it can be trusted.
