The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I don't think there is a ".a" field for the Russell 1000.

This does not work for me: Command line-only options: list:*
I get a list that does not include nas100.a.

These are the member .a fields I have:

Filename   Description
dji.a [Dow Jones Industrial Member]
djt.a [Dow Jones Transportation Member]
dju.a [Dow Jones Utilities Member]
fincd.a [Fama/French 49 Industry Code]
fincd10.a [Fama/French 10 Industry Code]
fincd12.a [Fama/French 12 Industry Code]
fincd17.a [Fama/French 17 Industry Code]
fincd30.a [Fama/French 30 Industry Code]
fincd38.a [Fama/French 38 Industry Code]
fincd48.a [Fama/French 48 Industry Code]
fincd49.a [Fama/French 49 Industry Code]
fincd5.a [Fama/French 5 Industry Code]
nas100.a [NASDAQ 100 Member]
sox.a [PHLX Semiconductor Member]
sp1500.a [S&P 1500 Member]
sp500.a [S&P 500 Member]


A backtest close to the Russell 1000 maybe could be constructed based on:
