Feature — S&P 500 Market Heatmap
S&P 500 Market Heatmap
See the entire S&P 500 at a glance. Color-coded by performance, sized by market cap, organized by sector.
What It Is
The market heatmap displays S&P 500 constituents as a treemap visualization — each stock sized by market capitalization and color-coded by daily performance (green for gains, red for losses). Drill down by sector to see individual stock performance within Technology, Healthcare, Financials, and other sectors.
Why It Matters
A heatmap gives you an instant visual read on market breadth and sector rotation that no table or list can match. In seconds, you can see whether the market rally is broad-based or concentrated, which sectors are leading or lagging, and which large-cap stocks are driving the moves.
