Great news! I’ve made the switchover to the “December Revision” of the HIMIPref™ Preferred Indices<\/a> for daily reporting purposes. While this may not mean a lot to you, it is very important to me, since the tables are prepared programmatically.<\/p>\n

There’s some problems: inclusion of dividend effects is haphazard at best and for some reason the tables on daily performance and volume are getting the index assignments wrong, but I’ll figure out how to address these quirks shortly. The main thing is: I can now push a button and get my damn reports output by HIMIPref™ as nice clean HTML code … or at least, it will be clean once I get some other quirks ironed out.<\/p>\n

This will save me considerable time!<\/p>\n

And – oh, yeah – the market was up again today. But then, the market always goes up, doesn’t it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
These values reflect the December 2008 Revision of the HIMIPref™ Indices<\/strong>
Effects of dividends are not incorporated into the daily updates at this time. <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
