Most Active Stocks Definition: The activity of a stock refers to a stock’s volume and stock volume refers to the number shares of a stock that is traded during a given period of time. For example, if Microsoft (MSFT) has a volume of 58 million shares for the day; it means that investors exchanged 58 million shares of stock during the course of one trading day. Those stocks which registered the highest volume for a given period of time would be by definition considered the most active stocks. A list of the most active stocks (i.e. stocks with the highest trading volume) for a given period of time helps illustrate which companies investors are focusing on. Often, that focus comes as a result of a major news event (e.g. earnings report, acquisition, legal issue, etc.). Several stocks that are on the following Most Active Stocks list will also make our list of Largest Companies by Market Cap, Biggest Stock Gainers Today and Biggest Stock Losers Today.
