I'd like more fundamental information. At present it is not very complete and not very useful.

Alot has changed with the creation of ETFs. For example..fixed investments like bonds can now be bought like stocks. These ETFs track these indices..for example ETF AGG tracks the Lehman Bros Aggregate. How is one to make a knowledgeable decision on investing without the data?..it is like buying a stock without looking at its price history! Other useful indices would be those by MSCI and iShares...as they have ETFs as well. Gary..I think i noticed one MSCI index in QP... !RMZ (their reit index...why not have them all?) Gary..you should be able to get iShares indices because they are a free download at their website...however downloading from their website is very work intensive. --- In quotes-plus@ <mailto:quotes-plus%40yahoogroups.com> yahoogroups.com, "gary" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi > > I checked the Lehman web site at: > > http://www.lehman. <http://www.lehman.com/fi/indices/> com/fi/indices/# > > You can click on the subscription link there. > > They get 1500 or 2500 per year per user for their indexes.
