Not to be pedantic (well, OK, it IS pedantic. Sorry), but I am intrigued
by your point.
As far as the DJIA goes, that is an index, and there may not be a single
way of expressing the symbol across vendors, so one just has to know the
right symbol for your vendor(s). BTW, you left off $DJX, which used to
represent the underlyer for DJIA options in PCQuote...
When a stock changes symbol, that does not create 2 symbols. There is
only one correct one at any point in time. An ongoing maintenance
problem is keeping up to date with symbnol/name changes. Does anyone
have a good site that can be accessed periodically, or that emails the
notice so it can be archived and looked at later when one has more time?
The only other solution I have found is to access the WSJ archives,
which go back two years, and is very slow.
I am not that familiar with either futures or mutual funds. I will look
at the ACM Govt Fund.
