This includes domestic (Incorporated in the same country as the exchange) and foreign (Incorporated in a different country than the exchange) companies and excludes funds and unit trusts.

For each exchange, a ticker symbol is created and the historical number of listed stocks is associated with that ticker. For example, the number of companies listed on NASDAQ OMX can be found under the ticker symbol: ^Listed_NASDAQ OMX.

If a company has several shares classes then it will be counted only once. Example: a company that has Class-A and Class-B shares will be counted only once.
