Question ... Is this a NEW US Stocks database or the one they have had available for 3 or 4 years? I've seen nothing in Amibroker about a new US Stocks database. I am using the Hemscott database that became available over a year ago. Its industry groups match Yahoo's and is an improvement on the original US Stocks database.
