Markets: stock lists, IPO calendars and forex rates for the USA, Canada and India
Twelve live stock lists, three IPO calendars and a currency converter, each with a plain-English guide and the tax notes a CPA would add. Information only.
Prepared by Prem Tax and Accounting Corp. Last checked against official sources on October 23, 2026.
Markets is a small section of free tools and plain-English guides for people who follow the stock markets of the USA, Canada and India, or who have family, income or accounts in more than one of them. You will find live stock lists from a free third-party screener, IPO calendars drawn from exchange and regulator pages, and currency rates with a converter. Every page also says how to read what you see, what it leaves out and how the tax side works.
- The pages describe and display information. They do not recommend any security or currency and do not predict prices.
- Stock lists come from a free embedded screener. U.S. data is usually end-of-day, and other markets may be delayed.
- Forex numbers are European Central Bank reference rates, published once on each business day and shown with their date.
- Tax notes are general. Your own facts, residency and accounts decide what applies to you.

What the four kinds of list mean
| List | What it is | What it is not |
|---|---|---|
| Most active | The securities with the most shares traded, ranked by volume. | A list of favorites. Volume counts trades, not opinions or money invested. |
| New 52-week highs | Securities trading at their highest price of the past 52 weeks. | A forecast. It describes the past year only. |
| New 52-week lows | Securities trading at their lowest price of the past 52 weeks. | A list of bargains or of failures. It cannot tell which, if either. |
| Unusual volume | Securities trading far more shares than their recent average. | A reason. The list shows that something is happening, not what, or why. |
Where the data comes from
- Stock lists: the free screener from TradingView, placed in the page and loaded only when you scroll to it.
- IPO tables: exchange and regulator pages, copied into the page with an "as of" date. Official calendars are linked on every IPO page.
- Forex: European Central Bank daily reference rates through Frankfurter. A snapshot is saved with the page, and your browser refreshes it when it can.
Why a CPA firm?
Families we work with often hold shares in more than one country: a brokerage account in the USA, a demat account in India, a TFSA or RRSP in Canada. Each piece can bring its own reporting. Our guides on international families, India accounts and investments and foreign accounts and the FBAR cover that side, and the tax calendar shows the dates. If you invest and run a business, the investors and traders page is the starting point.
Common questions
Is any of this investment advice?
No. The pages explain what a list or a calendar shows and how the tax side works. They do not tell you to buy, sell or hold anything, and they do not predict prices. We are a CPA firm, not a broker-dealer or an investment adviser.
Why does a page load content from other companies?
The stock lists are a free screener widget from TradingView, and the currency rates are refreshed from Frankfurter. Your browser contacts those services directly, and they may set cookies or log your internet address. We do not control them. The widget loads only when you scroll to it. Our privacy policy has a short section on this.
How current is the data?
U.S. stock data in the free screener is usually end-of-day, and other markets may be delayed. IPO tables carry an "as of" date and come from exchange and regulator pages. Forex rates are the European Central Bank's daily reference rates, shown with their date.
Why does a CPA firm publish a markets section?
Because the tax questions that follow investing are ours: how gains and losses are reported, what foreign accounts must be disclosed, which exchange rate goes on which form, and what changes when a family has ties to the USA, Canada and India. The lists are a convenience that sits next to the tax notes.
