Christine, re "I read on the Microsoft accounting protest site that MSFT's market weighting on the S&P is close to 40%." I would rely more on Standard & Poors own web site, which states that as of Oct. 29th 1999, MSFT accounts for 4.24% of the S&P 500: under "The top 10 issues by market value at October 29, 1999 were:" Microsoft Corp rank 1 Mkt value (millions) $475,898 % of index 4.24 Further, we see that the top 10 issues in terms of market cap altogether account for 23.13% of the S&P 500. It is most interesting to me though, that these same top 10 issues increased by an average of 29.2% ytd as of Nov. 1, 1999. There are a lot more statistics about the S&P 500 at the page I got these stats from: spglobal.com Regards
