Social network analysis is one of the methods used effectively in the visualization of data in a short time. The purpose of this study is to reveal the relations between stocks in Borsa Istanbul 100 (BIST 100) and also to identify the stocks that have a potential role and importance in BIST 100 with social network analysis method. The centralities of degree, betweenness and pagerank of stocks were established according to their degree of correlation. According to different threshold values, stocks that are effective, strong and popular were determined in the BIST 100. And also stocks were evaluated on sectorial basis.
