Markus:

iShares are a relatively new series. International funds started in '96,but sectors at a later date. As far as I can tell, IYR started trading 6/19/00. It is possible that Morgan Stanley followed the IYR fund for a period of time before it was traded, and if so they may be willing to let you have that data.

Dear Bill,

you were right: IYR is an iShare (surprisingly, a "regular" real-estate
sector INDEX doesnŽt seem to exist though there are many other indices for
other sectors (as well as tracking stocks)).

My data supplier only carries it since April Ž01. Yahoo Finance thru
AmiQuote provides data since July 2000.

IŽd like to get as much data as possible (reasons: see my ealier postto
Peter).

5-10 years were just fine, first day of trading were awesome.

If you could provide MetaStock format...
