MarketXS, leading provider
of real-time market data technology and trading solutions, today
announced that news releases distributed over PR Newswire are now bundled
into the standard data set of the MarketXSPro application. MarketXS has
chosen PR Newswire because of the extensive content it distributes daily.
Effective immediately, PR Newswire's full U.S. feed, full European feed
in English, German, French, Spanish, Dutch, Italian and Portuguese, and
the UK Disclose feed (regulatory news releases from listed UK companies)
will be available to all MarketXSPro users. Institutional investors,
financial analysts and other MarketXSPro users in Europe will thus
benefit from the nearly 1,000 news releases PR Newswire distributes daily
from leading organizations around the world.
Ronald Kleinveld, Managing Director of MarketXS, comments: 'We are glad
to offer this leading news source on MarketXSPro, because we realize how
important it is for our customers to follow the financial markets
accurately. PR Newswire offers a broad variety of financial news from all
over the world, available in more than 30 languages, which means it is a
valuable source for our end-users.'
'Our members will benefit from the additional exposure MarketXSPro will
provide to international investors' said David B. Armon, chief operating
officer of PR Newswire. 'Our partnership represents a significant
extension of our reach into the European financial markets.'
MarketXSPro for Windows (a terminal application for finance
professionals) delivers sophisticated analytics and in-depth, real-time
information from markets worldwide at a fraction of the cost of
traditional solutions.
It combines comprehensive data and advanced
functionality with a fully customizable user interface, an easy,
Windows-based, navigation and a full streaming integration with
Microsoft(r) Excel. The application obtains data through the Internet or
leased lines using the firewall-friendly HTTP protocol, just like a web
browser, and requires no additional investments in any local
infrastructure.
PR Newswire pioneered the immediate, simultaneous distribution of full
text news releases to news media in 1954. Today, operating around the
clock, 7 days a week, PR Newswire accurately, quickly and
cost-effectively transmits information received directly from the issuers
of that information to thousands of print, broadcast, wire and online
