Ahem, last I looked we were already into November. As a public service here's this month's thread and a link to Madelyn's famous Calculators page.
If you have a hankering to see the old links, here's a link to Financial Site of the Day (Oct97)

Here is a link to the C.D. Howe Institute. It contains a list of publications and backgrounders about policy issues of immediate concern to Canadians. David Laidler just added his backgrounder on NAIRU and its relationship to Bank of Canada monetary policy.

I'm excited about this one. This Web site provides access to the complete database of publicly accessible public company and mutual fund filings filed with the Canadian securities regulators using the SEDAR electronic filing system. You can even download a fund propectus and financial statements.
It's at http://www.sedar.com/homepage.htm
Maybe Bylo or gummy can hotspot it for us.

for market index updates 24 hr/day try
www.bloomberg.com/markets/index.html
click on INDU for north & south american markets
click on UKX for european markets
click on NKY for asian markets
WARNING during the day updates are fairly timely but at night they may lag by a fair amount, however between the above noted yahoo site (from Rick Nov 7) which can have the same problem (lag time that is) and this one results should be satisfactory.

New on the Bookmarks: The Canadian Business Map. Hope you're not on a 14.4 modem, as their New User page took almost a minute to load through a cable modem!
"This new navigation tool brings the world to your desktop by virtually integrating international, national, provincial and municipal business information."
....
"By using the Canadian Business Map, you can find industry analysis, municipal statistical profiles, stock quotes, banks, mortgage calculators, business news, examples of business plans, currency convertors and a lot more!"

Two possibilities: 1. Their server was down for "adjustments"; 2. You're running an older version of Explorer.
Just got in OK running Netscape Communicator 4.03 (Mac) on a 14.4 modem (my cable server seems to be down). Slower than a glacier, but it's there.

Check out the site for Dow Jones Interactive Publishing at
bis.dowjones.com.
Also, you will note a recent software which can be downloaded at the same site:
bis.dowjones.com/interactive/index.html.
The software can be used to research a variety of topics. There is a fee structure which specifies the cost of various kinds of research that may be conducted. However, the first month is free (except for a couple of very specialized research requests).
You need to call Dow Jones at an 800 number and supply some information to be able to download the software. The number (1-800-369-7466) needs to be called after filling out an e-mail form. The related instructions are given at the site.
The software may be useful especially to financial advisors and brokers. I am not an FA or broker, but I downloaded the software just to evaluate it.
