"Where can one find the aggregate EPS growth numbers on the NDX?" No idea! However, you would need to adjust it downward by a MINIMUM of 10% for options. 50% of the NDX is made up of about 9 stocks: dynamic.nasdaq-amex.com It's tedious even for 9 stocks, but a calculation on the 9 X 2 would probably lend "some" guidance. After all, YHOO, ATHM, LCOS and AMZN equal another 4% and net of charges are big losers. Therefore, I think if you were to work with the 9 you would find a pretty good correlation. Then of course you have your NETAs whose sales were down a "mere" 90% last quarter. I would be interested in your findings should you assume the task :) PS. The NDX is like 88% of the Nasdaq. So, you have 9 stocks that make up 44% of the ENTIRE Nasdaq.
