Many people under-estimate how many stocks are traded in the United States. The total number as this is being written is 24,861.

The following is the breakdown of how many stocks are publicly traded in the US by stock exchange or market:

NYSE 4,360

NASDAQ 3,180

AMEX 320

Over the Counter QX Market 484

Over the Counter QB Market 965

Pink Sheets 9,201

Expert Market 20

Grey Market 6,331

In case you are wondering, the expert market is for stocks that are generally only available to accredited investors. The grey market is the market of publicly traded companies that do not or no longer trade on the OTC market or the pink sheets, due to compliance issues or lack of company information.
