Also, can go to brokerage site (E-trade, , or
others), and obtain quotes, print them, then just
add the price over the " estimated" value in your
portfolio.-- tis a pain, but then certain
securities/assets you cant get quotes for. Like
Gold, Nestles, many adr's, and other securities.
as SOME brokerages have different symbols for
securities, (like the former Rustenburg Platinum
Merrill lynch think used RUSTY, Shearson used
RPATY) and other lesser traded securities may
yse "in house" symbols . Even well known ones
SLVD (silver) , and DJGL (Gold), arn't normally
quoted on comstock, and may be elusive on regular
brokerage accounts. By the way, symbols, with the
5th leter "Y" are ADR's, "F" are foreign, "C" are
conditional listings, "U" is for units (with
warrents) , and there are other other
nomenclature for stocks. And for your info,
even Vodafone (VOD) on the NYSE, has several
other versions, on the NASDQ, each with its own
symbol, and MOST only quotable by your broker!
