NOTE: AIS will become AMPL when it moves to the Naz (one of the reasons I like this going forward)... See: Friday April 28, 11:20 am Eastern Time Company Press Release Ampal-American Israel Corporation to Trade On the Nasdaq Stock Market NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 28, 2000--Ampal-American Israel Corporation (AMEX:AIS - news) announced today that it is switching the listing of its Class A Stock from the American Stock Exchange to the Nasdaq Stock Market©.
