Why you should track your investments with Sharesight

Sharesight supports over 40 key global markets, including the Canadian (CNSX), Toronto (TSE) and Toronto TSX Ventures (CVE) stock exchanges, plus leading US exchanges such as the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and Nasdaq. This is in addition to our support for over 100 currencies and more than 200 leading brokers worldwide. With the ability to track the price and performance of investments across different asset classes, markets, currencies and brokers, Sharesight is the ultimate portfolio tracker for global investors.

Unlike the data provided by most brokers, Sharesight takes into account the impact of capital gains, dividends, brokerage fees and currency fluctuations when calculating returns – giving investors the full picture of their portfolio’s performance. Sharesight also offers a range of powerful reports for self-directed investors including performance, portfolio diversity, contribution analysis, and multi-currency valuation. The ability to track cash accounts, property and even cryptocurrency is just another reason that investors should consider using Sharesight to track their investment portfolio.

Canadian mutual fund support in Sharesight

Sharesight supports all Canadian mutual funds covered by Morningstar price data — over 40,000 — which will continue to grow as additional mutual funds enter the market and are included in the Sharesight database. Fund data dates as far back as 1 January 2000, with prices updated daily by end-of-day.

As users add Canadian mutual fund investments to their portfolios, they can get the full picture of their investment performance by viewing their fund investments with the rest of their holdings, whether they be stocks, ETFs or custom investments such as property or term deposits. This makes it easy for investors to see the impact of specific investments as part of the overall return of their portfolio.
