Conference nyoss1::market_investing

re: .0

see note 330 in NYOSS1::Digital_Investing for a lot of discussion regarding 
this issue.  Concensus so far is similar to yours.  

    I have some investments in Templeton Foreign and N/B Guardian (not
    Trust) and they have been OK, but not outstanding.  I've just install
    the new version of Wealthbuilder (windows).  The database is from June
    1994 (I haven't been able to pull the November 1994 database across 
    yet).  In the next three notes, I'll put the "Mutual Fund Report Card"
    for Templeton Foreign, Neuberger & Berman Guardian Trust, and 
    Neuberger & Berman Guardian (which is managed by the same folks).

	Alot of data for most of the new funds have been posted in
	the Digital_Investing conference ..............

re: "Alot of data for most of the new funds have been posted in the
Digital_Investing conference .............."

Where *is* that conference? I can't find anything except one with one
note that has no information.

I'm looking for the ticker symbols for stock A and stock B. Anyone?

Thanks,
Pete

	Almost all public conferences are announced in the conference
	Turris::Easynet_Conferences (press SELECT now to add it
	to your notebook).  Topic 3495 is the one for the Digital_Investing
	conference.

	In the case of the Digital_Investing conference, it's on the
	same node that houses this conference ....

I know that. Hence, my question.

> I know that. Hence, my question.

	Which is what I answered.  But if you knew the answer, why did
	you ask?  Or are you trying to ask something different?  In
	which case, please re-phrase the question :-)

    Someone has been creating versions of the investing confreencing notes
    file.  As per instructions in the investing file, modify your file name
    to include the ;1 version.  I did and it works.

I did too, but haven't had the same luck.  The conference I get shows a
last update on 18-Sep at about 21:33 (a week ago).  My entry is:
	nyos01::digital_investing.note;1

Is this pointing to the correct file?  Has there been activity since
18-Sep?

Thanks,
Darryl

I tried adding the version number again (I tried that last week), and
now I can see all of the topics in the conference. Don't know how long
it will last, though.

Thanks for the help,
Pete

    
    Does anybody know how our 401k mutal funds choices did this past
    quarter ?   July-Sept '95 ?
    
    
    Market as a whole did quite nice ... Would be interested to see if
    our NEW Save funds did as well.
    
    Thanks in advance!
