About Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index
What it measures
The Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index (FRED series WILL5000IND) tracks the performance of essentially all US-headquartered equities with readily available prices, from mega-caps to micro-caps. Maintained by Wilshire, it is float-adjusted and capitalization-weighted. FRED provides the daily index level, making it the broadest single gauge of the US stock market available on the platform.
Why it matters
Because it spans the full listed universe, the Wilshire 5000 approximates the aggregate market value of US corporate equity. Its ratio to GDP, popularized as the Buffett indicator, is a widely referenced valuation yardstick. Analysts also use the index to measure the small- and mid-cap performance that large-cap benchmarks omit.
How to read it
Directionally the index moves with the S&P 500, since large caps dominate its weight, but the gap between the two reveals whether smaller companies are participating in a rally or lagging. A high market-cap-to-GDP ratio suggests rich aggregate valuation, though structural shifts such as rising foreign earnings and changing listing counts complicate comparisons across decades.
