Three in Ten Americans Own Equity Investments

Just under three in ten Americans (29 percent) own equity investments such as stocks or ETFs. That's what the results of a recent survey by statista conducted between April 2025 and March 2026 show. By comparison, 32 percent of Americans didn't own any financial products or investments.

Only 18 percent of respondents in the U.S. said they own cryptocurrency such as Bitcoin, and investments in precious metals were even rarer, concerning only 10 percent of those surveyed.
