Hi,

How can I get the Market Cap of a stock using the pricing/snapshots service?

https://api.refinitiv.com/data/pricing/snapshots/v1/?universe=/{RIC}Error

or is there any other service that I can get the updated market data that should be change during trading time according to the stock price.

Thanks!

  • Hello @Ehud_I

    There are couple of fields in the real-time feed which carry the shares outstanding information, but these may/may not be populated for every instrument. This availability of this value depends on the listing exchange. The fields like AMT_OS (850) or AMT_OS_UNS (32744), can be multiplied with the last trade price to get the market capitalization.

    There is also a field MKT_CAP (2744) abd MKT_VALUE (2150), which can directly provide this information, if it is populated for your instrument.

    As for other products - any service like DSS which carries fundamental data for instruments, can provide Market Cap. The fundamental data is not updated in real time.

    You can raise a content ticket at LSEG MyAccount, to find out more about this data query.

    Hello @Gurpreet ,

    Thank you for your response.

    Can you give me an example of a RIC that has these values? especially the MKT_CAP field.

    You can use the Data Model Discovery tool to check which markets support the MKT_CAP field.

    Otherwise, you can contact the content support team directly via the LSEG Support to get sample RICs.
