Among the many outstanding features of Kapitall.com is the ability for users to see what stocks others in the Kapitall community are viewing and trading.

When it comes to the most viewed the list is largely populated with the usual suspects: Apple (AAPL), Amazon (AMZN), Bank of America (BAC), Microsoft (MSFT) and so on. There is also the occasional surprise name that tops the charts due to recent news.

We thought it interesting to compare the list of Kapitall’s most viewed with Kapitall’s most held stocks (by number of actively trading portfolios, not shares). For the most part there’s a strong overlap. Among some others, Apple and Facebook (FB) top both lists.
