What is the New York Stock Exchange?

Founded in the US in 1792, the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) is the world’s largest stock market by market capitalisation. The exchange lists a wide variety of US and international stocks, ranging from blue chips to new growth stocks.

Why should investors track their NYSE stocks with Sharesight?

Investors tracking their NYSE stocks with Sharesight can easily monitor the price and performance of their investments across multiple asset classes and brokers – benefiting from Sharesight's 15 minute delayed pricing for the NYSE – or take advantage of Sharesight's advanced performance and tax reporting features built for self-directed investors. Most importantly, Sharesight’s annualised performance calculation methodology gives investors a clear picture of their portfolio’s performance by taking into consideration the impact of brokerage fees, dividends, foreign exchange rates and capital gains when calculating returns.

Track dividends from NYSE stocks

Unlike other portfolio trackers, Sharesight automatically tracks dividend and distribution income, which is included when calculating your portfolio’s returns. As can be seen in the screenshot below, dividends can have a real impact on your returns, which is why your portfolio tracking solution needs to consider more than just capital gains when calculating your performance.

Powerful performance reports designed for investors

Sharesight has a range of powerful reports for investors who want a more detailed breakdown of their portfolio’s performance, such as Performance, Portfolio Diversity, Contribution Analysis and Future Income (upcoming dividends). The screenshot below, for example, shows the Contribution Analysis Report being used to see the relative ‘weight’ of each market in a portfolio. This could be useful for investors looking to compare the performance of their NYSE stocks with the rest of their portfolio, for instance.
