Sectors and Industries -- Care of Prospector

A Listing of OPS/GICS Sectors and Industries

I needed to create lists of sectors and industries for NAIC stock analysis software that are representative of NAIC online SSG data.

After talking with some NAIC friends, I had the bright idea of using Prospector.

Well, Brian Lewis has already done most of the work with his BITS article, Sector Screening With Prospector. So I downloaded the Prospector screens, back checked the items on the S&P web site and created the lists.

So... here you go. I'll give you 48 hours to post this (GRIN) because I'm sure NAIC members would like to have this information.

Best regards,
