From htpp://www.equis.com -> catalogs -> software. EquisDirect Investor's Reference Library CD with Data We ordered too many 2nd-quarter IRLs, so we are discounting them by $40!! Benefit from the unique perspective that only major market analysts have had. Organize your securities into industry groups to easily see what effect one industry has on another with the IRL. Many hidden industry relationships can be discovered and provide an overall market perspective you won't find any other way. Identifying stocks within emerging industries is a powerful investment technique. In fact, some market analysts attribute as much as 30 percent of stock price changes to industry group movement. Investor's Reference Library (IRL) CD from Industry Monitors allows you to manipulate a database of over 8,000 securities-AMEX, NYSE, and NASDAQ listings-organized into 200 industry groups. IRL comes with a fundamental database and 5 years of price and volume historical data on each company, making analysis easy. The data is supplied by Reutersr Trend Datalink, assuring you of top quality and consistency. With IRL, you can: Analyze smaller market segments. Just copy industry indices into a central index folder. Then use The Explorer to do group analysis such as industry ranking, money flow, momentum formulas, and more! Exclude stocks below a specified price from your MetaStock indexes for more accurate analysis. Preview changes from the latest update before changing your database with a summary ASCII text file that shows additions, deletions, and industry moves. Break a large list of industries into more manageable lists by excluding industries from the update process. Follow the hottest new stocks with the new "Computers - Internet" industry group. Export IRL data easier with the improved exporting process. Access hard-to-find information such as the company components of an industry, which securities have options, the option symbol, an IPO's date and price, and company descriptions, addresses, and telephone numbers. IRL has added even more features: Instantly chart price/volume indexes for groups or individual stocks. Update many IRL datafields on the fly. Combine any number of companies to create custom groups. Search stocks by multiple criteria at once. Get tips from industry analysts on using the IRL. Generate two new index types specifically for portfolio management. As a convenience, 200 pre-generated indices have been added for quick analysis and ranking or you can quickly create custom indexes for MetaStock using IRL's Index Generator. Make an index of the top five stocks within an industry and use that as a measuring stick for the stocks you invest in. Make an IPO index. Make a composite of any number of stocks. You can even group all the Industry Indexes into a single MetaStock folder for ranking industry groups using MetaStock's Explorer. Create and save Price Weighted, Average Price and Market Value Weighted indices as MetaStock files. Use your own criteria to check out an industry by referencing the IRL database. IRL and The Explorer in MetaStock make it easy to do. Free Bonus! Included on the IRL CD is Reuters Money Network, an online financial information service that includes company reports, discount brokerage services, personalized news clipping service, and more.
