Trading DIAMONDS:
- In January 1998, the AMEX launched
DIAMONDS, a unit investment trust based on the Dow Jones
Industrial Average. DIAMONDS allow investors to buy or sell
shares in an entire portfolio of the Dow Jones Industrial
Average stocks as easily as they do shares of a single stock.
- Trading more than 1.7 million shares on its
first day of listing, DIAMONDS enjoyed the most successful
launch of any exchange product in AMEX history at that time.
- A purchase of shares in this single
investment vehicle gives the investor a participation in
approx. 1/100th the value of the Dow Jones 30 Industrial
Averages. When people are discussing "the market" they are
usually referring to the 30 Industrials; the oldest index by
far. Diamonds track the market. With the Dow at 10,000 the
Diamonds sell at about $100 per share.
- DIAMONDS are Exchange-traded securities
that represent ownership in the DIAMONDS Trust, a long-term
unit investment trust established to accumulate and hold a
