This is what Tomasz said in the release notes for 5.28: "As far as I know PremiumData _http://www.premiumdata.net/_ (http://www.premiumdata.net/) is planning to release AmiBroker-compatible database with GICS support." What does that mean? Kevin Campbell Obviously I'm very interested Norgate data..... but been disappointed before by others....

I have been using their data for about four years and find the quality and reliability excellent. You get a little utility to click on from your desktop to do the updates which is a one click affair - very easy. I get the Australian market data of about 2,000 equities and this takes about 2 minutes to download each night. They supply USA data including futures and currencies and some other International bourses data. The updates, splits, new listings are all done automatically, normally during the weekend. Norgate data is imported natively into AmiBroker using the Metastock plug-in. Even better, Norgate automatically creates and maintains your GICS databases for US and Australian stocks and this goes down to sub-industry group levels with the release of AmiBroker 5.8.xx beta. As Richard Dale of Norgate once stated: we have to maintain the absolute best quality data as this is the only business we are in. I have no connection or pecuniary interests with Norgate - just a very satisfied customer.
