Good:
>>You could suggest that posters propose companies that they believe are genuine - giving supporting evidence - as potential components of the Index and that alone should boost the Daily numbers of Posts on iHUB and save a lot of research work... <<

Duh. Did you think I was just doing this for kicks? :)


Perhaps letting the community vote for their favorite companies on the OTC (with certain qualifications) and have some sort IRV setup for vote tabulation, in order to get the number down from the thousands to the few hundreds:

Have each member propose their own, say top 50(or whatever) OTC's, and then use the top 200(or whatever) for the IHUB:OTC index. You could set it up weighted as well, like the QQQ, measuring some stocks more than others. In fact, the QQQ is probably a good model.

I think the index would be more interesting to have an actual price, rather than a portfolio value.

In building the core index components are you planning to include a limited number from each sector, or just the hottest stocks in the OTCBB?
