Up to five companies and four metrics on one chart, over real time — price and total return, revenue and margins, cash flow, dividends and valuation multiples — with a table of the latest values underneath.
Companies rarely differ in one way. One is cheaper but growing slower; another earns better margins but carries more debt. Held in your head, those trade-offs blur. Drawn on one chart, over the same years, they resolve into a small number of decisions you can actually reason about.
The chart builder puts every company on a real time axis — statement figures on each company’s own fiscal dates, prices by the day — and gives each company one colour across every metric, so its revenue and its margin are told apart by shape rather than by guesswork. A missing figure is a gap in the line, never a guess.
Pairs investors weigh against each other most often. The chart builder itself takes any listed companies.
Type up to five tickers onto one canvas — any listed names, not just the pairs on this site. Each company keeps its own colour on every chart.
Choose up to four metrics. Two share one chart with an axis each; more split into a panel per metric. Statement figures sit on each company’s own fiscal dates, so a quarter is never stretched to look like a day.
Open a company’s page for its Quality Score, its intrinsic value and its fair value, save it to a watchlist, or export the chart as an image. The whole chart lives in its link, so it can be bookmarked or sent.
Comparing stocks means putting the same measure for several companies on one scale — revenue, margins, cash flow, returns, valuation multiples — so differences stand out instead of having to be remembered. Over time rather than at one date, because a margin that has been falling for three years and one that has just dipped look identical in a single snapshot.
Up to five companies and four metrics on one chart, over real time — price and total return, revenue and margins, cash flow, dividends and valuation multiples — with a table of the latest values underneath. Two metrics share one chart with an axis each; with more, every metric gets its own panel.
A free account charts one company on one metric over the last five years. Putting companies against each other — up to five, on up to four metrics, over their whole history — is part of Ultimate, and every new account gets it for seven days: create an account, confirm your email, and the trial starts without a card. A chart is an address, so the link you made keeps working the day you subscribe.
Start with the ones that decide the specific companies. Two consumer staples turn on margins and payout ratios; two semiconductor companies turn on revenue growth and gross margin. The catalogue covers price and returns, the income statement, cash flow, the balance sheet, returns on capital, valuation multiples and dividends.
You can, and the chart will draw it, but read the result carefully. Margins and multiples are only comparable within similar business models — a software company and a retailer will always look different for reasons that have nothing to do with quality.
No. It tells you how businesses differ on measurable fundamentals. What that means for you depends on your holding period, your view of the industry and what else you own. Nothing here is investment advice.
