The total value of everything ownable on Earth — the present worth of human skill and labor, of every factory, home, road, and machine, of the planet's forests, minerals, and farmland, plus the world's gold and money. Summed into one figure and marked to market every day.
What Earth is made of, over time
Each band is a constituent of total global wealth (US dollars, trillions), 2000-01 → present — the top edge is the headline market cap. Click any component below to drill in. Bands are drawn most- volatile-first so market movement shows in every edge. Equities use the real S&P 500 (monthly back to 2000, daily recently); other pre-launch history is reconstructed from driver series — see the methodology.

The income approach values Earth at $3.81 quadrillion
Instead of summing assets, you can capitalize the planet's annual economic output as if Earth were a company paying a dividend — a Gordon-growth discount of all future global GDP. It lands higher than the asset sum ($3.27 quadrillion – $4.57 quadrillion across a ±50 bp swing in the discount-minus-growth spread), and it is extraordinarily sensitive to that spread — which is exactly why we show it as a cross-check, not the headline.
