It is calculated by multiplying the total number of issued shares of the company with the price of the stock. Market cap is used to categorize the shares of companies so that investors can choose them according to their risk profile. Such as large cap, mid cap and small cap companies. Market cap = (number of outstanding shares) x (price of shares) How does market cap work? Whether a company's shares will give profit or not is estimated by looking at many factors. One of these factors is also market cap. Investors can find out how big a company is by looking at the market cap. The higher the market cap of a company, the better the company is considered. Stock prices rise and fall according to demand and supply. Therefore, market cap is the public perceived value of that company. How does market cap increase or decrease? It is clear from the formula of market cap that it is calculated by multiplying the total number of issued shares of the company with the price of the stock.
