Earl, aren't the High Yield data mentioned reflecting the best efforts, trading, of the fund managers? If I'm not mistaken, these funds don't reflect the actual high-yield rates from day-to-day. Colin

I run spreads and use the spreads to track risk acceptance/aversion.

I am a new subscriber using QP along with Amibroker. Great combination. One dissappointment I have with many data vendors is the lack of index data for High Yield Bonds. I know Lipper charges an arm and a leg for thier index, but what about the Merril Lunch HYB index? They make the data available free on their website with a small signup form. I have to enter the data manually everyday...sure would be nice to have this data in the QP download. Here is a link to the Merril page:http://www.mlindex.ml.com/GISPublic/bin/QuickChart.asp?sCurr=0|LOC symbol: H0A0 (H zero A zero) Thanks- Eric.
