Hello all -

 

If I have a Sub Industry watch list located under my main watchlist.  When I select a specific stock from the main watchlist (above the Sub Industry watchlist), all the stocks from that Sub Industry appear in the Sub Industry watchlist.  But this does NOT occur when my main watchlist is a list of SPDR Select ETFs and I select a specific ETF in that list.  For example, I select (or click-on) the ETF "XME," the list of component stocks that comprise the XME ETF do NOT appear in the Sub Industry watchlist.  Can someone please provide an explanation for why the list of components for an ETF does not appaer in the Sub Industry watchlist?  Thank you!

Sub Industry is not a built in way to access component WatchLists for any symbol that might be derived from multiple symbols. Sub Industry only the component WatchList for the sector to which the symbol belongs.

There is no similar option to create a WatchList which will automatically display the component WatchList if available of an ETF. That said, if you select an ETF as the active symbol for a chart, there might be an Open Component WatchList icon immediately to the right of the symbol in the upper right hand corner of the chart. It will look like three small arrows pointing to rectangles if there is an available component WatchList to which the symbol has an automatic link (only some ETFs will have this icon available).

Yes, thank you Bruce.  That's the way I was obtaining the component lists (as you describe using the little icon to the right of the symbol.  I just though there might be a more automatic methodology.  Thanks much!
