Hi Tommaso - Some US brokers, and certainly Charles Schwab, have made it more difficult to trade and find information on non-US listed stocks, the ones that don't have ADR.

There are few or no pointers on their web site.

I have talked to one of the Schwab managers, and was told thay did not think foreign stocks were appropriate for their customer base.

Many of the popular investment magazines, (like Money, Smart Money, and Kiplinger's) almost never cover any foreign stocks that can't be bought on a US exchange.

Interesting that these same magazines carry ads for foreign vacations and cruises, and run the occasional article on foreign travel.

But evidently the editors are too lazy to include any information on foreign stocks.

I recently bought and sold Japanese real estate & hotel company, Toku Land (TOLAY.pk - watch the mark up and spread)
Both Yahoo and Schwab had price quotes as much as 4 days old...
