New Features on Quote: Short Interest and Insider Data



http://ih.advfn.com/p.php?pid=squote&symbol=MSFT

* Informational hovers -- Hover your mouse for 1 second over any box header and you'll see an explanation of what that box's data represents.

* Short Interest -- This is an often-referenced number among the iHub community, it was hiding in our database, we found it, and put it right on the main quote page for you. Hover to see when the data was last updated.

* Short % of float -- Short Interest divided by Float. Can be useful for identifying heavily shorted stocks.

* Insider B/S -- the net of buys and sells over the last 3 months.

* Inst. % Ownership -- % ownership of outstanding shares by Institutions.

* Exchange -- lists the exchange the equity is listed on.

Note that short and insider data isn't necessarily available on all stocks, namely USOTC stocks.

I think these are some extremely useful additions to the Quote page. Let us know if you run into any issues or see any squirrely data.

Kudos to Warren for coding and getting this live!
