RGinPG - Your site is great! A couple of questions: 1) Some of your numbers are green; some are red; and some are just plain black. The green does not appear to mean "up," nor the red to mean "down." What's the significance? 2) How do you get the numbers for ADRs like CXIPY? Trying to get data on ADRs generally drives me nuts. Either my sources provide no numbers at all for such things as P/Es and projected growth rates (o, that ubiquitous N/A!), or they provide contradictory numbers (e.g., P/Es ranging from 15 to 45!!). As a result, I often end up not buying an ADR I'm interested in. (Doubly a mistake, considering that Europe has been outpacing the U.S. for over a year! This calendar year alone, my U.S. index fund is up 16% so far, while my European index fund is up 24%!) In any event, can you direct me to a reliable source of information? Or do you do the calculations yourself? 3) Do you plan to expand your data base, to include more companies? I know there are a zillion companies out there, and it may be really difficult to include them all. But a few more would help. Regards, and more bouquets for your site, jbe
