The Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index, or simply the Wilshire 5000 Index, is a market-capitalization-weighted index of all equities that are actively traded in the United States.

Because of its depth and breadth, the Wilshire 5000 Index is an excellent place to look for investment opportunities.

With this in mind, we created a free Excel spreadsheet of all Wilshire 5000 stocks.

You can download your list of Wilshire 5000 stocks (along with relevant financial metrics that matter such as dividend yields and price-to-earnings ratios) by clicking on the link below:

The Wilshire 5000 Stocks List available for download above contains the following information for every stock in the index:

How To Use The Wilshire 5000 Stocks List To Find Investment Ideas

The volume of stocks contained within the Wilshire 5000 makes the database available in this article a very useful tool to find investment ideas.

This resource becomes even more powerful when combined with a working knowledge of Microsoft Excel.

With that in mind, this tutorial will show you how to implement two useful investing screens to the stocks within the Wilshire 5000 list.

The first screen we’ll apply will be appealing to value investors – it searches for stocks with price-to-earnings ratios below 10 and market capitalizations below $1 billion.

Screen 1: Price-to-Earnings Ratios Below 10 and Market Capitalizations Below $1 Billion

Step 1: Download the Wilshire 5000 stocks list by clicking here.

Step 2: Click on the filter icon at the top of the price-to-earnings ratio column, as shown below.

Step 3: Change the filter setting to “Less Than” and input 10 into the field beside it, as shown below. This will filter for stocks within the Wilshire 5000 stocks list with price-to-earnings ratios below 10.

Step 4: Close out of the filter window (by clicking the exit button, not by clicking the “Clear Filter” button in the bottom right corner). Then, click on the filter icon at the top of the market capitalization column, as shown below.

Step 5: Change the filter setting to “Less Than” and input 1000 into the field beside it, as shown below. Since the spreadsheet measures market capitalization in millions of dollars, filtering for stocks with capitalizations below “$1000 million” is equivalent to screening for securities whose market capitalizations are below $1 billion.

The remaining stocks in this spreadsheet are members of the Wilshire 5000 Index with price-to-earnings ratios below 10 and market capitalizations below $1 billion.

The next screen that we’ll demonstrate will be more appealing to conservative, income-oriented investors: it’s for identifying members of the Wilshire 5000 index with dividend yields above 4% and 5-year betas below 0.6

Final Thoughts: More Excel-Based Investing Resources

The Wilshire 5000 Index is often referred to as the “total stock market” index because it contains virtually all publicly-traded stocks within the United States. Because of its breadth, however, this index is sometimes not the best resource to use.

You may also be looking for domestic stocks within a particular sector of the stock market.

If that is the case, you will benefit from knowing about the following Sure Dividend Excel databases:

At Sure Dividend, we often advocate for investing in companies with a high probability of increasing their dividends each and every year.
