I am so glad SC includes inside and institutional ownership in their data. However, I would much prefer to see it expressed as a percentage, instead of number of shares. Also, what does the line for Interest Coverage mean? This snip came from LLL.
Interest Coverage: 3.8 Insider Ownership: .4 Institutional Ownership: 109,302.1
CURRENT POSITION Current Year Ago % Change

The interest coverage ratio is a measurement of the number of times a company can make its interest payments with its earnings before interest and taxes.
Wikipedia says that it is calculated like this: EBITDA /Interest Expense |

Thanks for that clarification, Joe. What about the idea to express the insider and institutional ownership as a percentage, as the SSG calls for?
Best wishes, Gene

While we are on this subject, when will you make the pertinent SSG data available as a one page 'printer friendly' option. I thought that had been revised once, but when I went to see about printing some for a small class I have coming up, it isn't suitable for the purpose. I'm not referring to inputting the SSG data into Toolkit. Gene

And while I am grousing on the subject ;-) Today is the 24th. How come the data sheets are only current through the 16th? TakeStock is current through closing yesterday. Gene

Hi Gene,
We are updating the data as we speak, our data updater was out sick yesterday... We are working on an automated schedule, too. Sorry for the delay!
