Stock research / Compare

Compare stocks side by side

Put two or three US companies next to each other: what the market pays for each, how profitable each is, how fast each grows, the share price from one start and ten years of their filings drawn on the same scale.

Try NVIDIA, AMD and Broadcom · Coca-Cola and PepsiCo · Apple and Microsoft · JPMorgan and Bank of America · NVIDIA Corp. and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited

The share price

Side by side

The same arithmetic on the same filings

Each line is one measure. The dots sit on one scale, so the gap between them is the gap between the companies; a short mark shows zero where a figure can fall below it. The figures are the same arithmetic on the same filings as each company's page.

Ten years in the filings

Where the revenue comes from

Business segments, latest fiscal year

The business segments each company reports, as a share of its revenue in its latest fiscal year.

Every figure, side by side

Each figure is defined on the formulas page; a line a company does not file shows n/a. A company that files once a year shows its latest fiscal year, in dollars at the Federal Reserve's rates where it reports in another currency.

Questions

How do I compare two stocks?

Type a company's name or ticker in the box at the top of the page and pick it from the list, then add a second and, if you like, a third. The names go into the page's address, so the same comparison can be opened again or sent to someone.

What does the stock comparison show?

The share price of each company from one start over one, three, five or ten years, with the S&P 500 beside it if you switch it on; what the market pays for each, how profitable each is and how fast each grows, on one scale; ten fiscal years of their filings as small charts; the business segments their revenue comes from; and every figure in one table.

Where do the figures come from?

From each company's filings with the SEC, worked out the same way as on each company's own page. The formulas page defines every measure. It is data for your own research and is no advice.
