Indiana daily adds Money & Markets from AP

Bob Heisse, the editor of the Northwest Indiana Times in Munster, writes about how its business section is adding Associated Press data.

Heisse writes, “We’ve replaced basic market data collected by staffers each day with a package of Money & Markets data produced by The Associated Press.

“This daily presentation, expanded on Sundays, gives you a snapshot of the trading day and key indicators in the economy. Find out the top gainers and losers on Wall Street, read about the market movers, and follow top local stocks in print.

“Money & Markets builds out online with exciting new features at www.nwi.com/business.

“The major addition is the ability to look up your investments and create your own personalized watch list. It’s as easy as typing in the symbol for any stock or mutual fund you own and seeing the value and a financial report for the company.

“Your watch list will be visible every time you visit our online business page. And while you’re there you’ll read further about daily business developments, moving stocks, and different aspects of the economy.”
