Re: Master list of PP component ETF/MFD options
I think that's a good idea, Craig... Perhaps a Y/N or check column for meeting Browne's criteria?

Re: What do you have for gold (ETf, physical)?
Why would you show your ID? Go to a different store that asks fewer questions. Tell em your sweet grandpappy bequeathed them unto you.... Not that you shouldn't pay taxes, of course, that would be the worst kind of wrong. I'd go for 1 oz govt minted coins (as outlined in the Gold FAQ). I, and everyo...

Re: Mixing Gold Coin Types, or Staying Consistent?
99.99% coins are very soft, and care must be used handling them... For this reason, I'd recommend slabbing and/or coin holder for them.
On the bright side, a 99.99% forgery is much harder to pull off than a 91.67% forgery.

Re: Yahoo gave me a heart attack
I really can't see gold losing 12% in one day... HEADLINE: "World's Problems Fixed! Golden Age Inevitable!" Prosperity takes time to build (stairs up), but it can unravel overnight (elevator down). Gold is inverse, therefore I don't see it ever making that huge of leaps down, outside of incredible, ...

Re: Master list of PP component ETF/MFD options
Posted a very, very rough draft in the OP... Check it out, and the To Do List within. Right off the bat you'll notice mutual funds are broken, they require a different feed than ETFs. Details here: http://www.amateur-invest.com/files/inv_set.ini I wonder if this means we'll have to maintain two list...

Re: Master list of PP component ETF/MFD options
Thanks all, keep em coming! I updated the OP. What variables would be good to see in the [mostly] auto-populating spreadsheet? So far I'm thinking: SYMBOL, NAME, TYPE (ETF, MF, CEF [closed end fund]), EXCHANGE , EXP. RATIO, DIV YIELD, EX-DIV DATE, SPREAD (or bid/ask), NO COMMISSION BROKER , STANDARD...

Master list of PP component ETF/MFD options
I'm looking to compile a list of all PP variables. Any points and discussions are appreciated. So far I have these... Eventually I'd like to get a wiki going, and a googledoc with all stats (ex: dividend yield) auto-filled. Stocks: VT, VTI, SPY, VIFSX, VGTSX, VV, ILD, VWO, VB, IVV, ACWI, FSEMX, FSTM...
