stocks would be Zack's. Do a custom search and export to Excel. If
you need more info, yell out.

<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>2. The first question you need to ask, however, is what period do
you think is best for beta. I happen to think that 5 years is too
long.
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff

<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>3. If you agree that 5 years is too long, why not calculate your
own, 100% accurate beta using MetaStock.

size=2>4. If you decide on a period and you want a file containing current
betas for that period and you aren't able to do it in MetaStock, let me know and
I'll send it to you.

<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>5. The beauty of doing it yourself is that you can do it
dynamically and the beta would change (slightly) every day of your backtest and
be 100% accurate.

Hope
this helps.
