Hi there, Anyone else noticed that the Reuters Technology and Financial Sector data has been flat for the last 4 years? Someone better call the Fed and the Treasury before we spend $700B, because according to Reuters everything is FINE. When I brought the flat Technology sector chart to Equis' attention I was told to "wait till Reuters updates their symbol map... sometime next month (Oct08)" WOW!!! Like THAT is an acceptable answer, I sure hope I get a refund for the 2 months of CRAP data I have been getting from Reuters. Does Equis not understand we are PAYING for this and that we are the CUSTOMER???????

Perhaps you should consider using the S&P 500 Information Technoloy Sector Index, or the S&P 500 Financial Sector Index, or the equivalent Dow Jones Industry (level 1) indexes Dow Jones US Technology Index and Dow Jones US Financials Index. Our symbols for these are $SPXT, $SPXF, $DJUSTC and $DJUSFN respectively but you might have to look these symbols up for Reuters or other data vendors.
Cheers, Richard Norgate Data
