Hi there. I'm trying to find a (hopefully free) source of historical data for constituents of major indexes, primarily S&P 100, 400, 500, 600, 900, 1500. I know I can get the latest from S&P site itself, however I need to know what was in those indices at a particular time in the past (for at least the past year, although further back in time would be great). Does anyone know where I might obtain this information? Or maybe someone has kept track and would be kind enough to share? Thanks in advance.
my experience has been that s&p does not offer this data for free. If you wanted to engage in a lot of labor, check out an index mutual fund and pull the holdings out of the prospectus.
I'm hoping for at least a year, but if you happen to have it available for the last 3 months that would work. Thanks
Register (it's free) and login at: https://www.sp-indexdata.com/idp/LoginAction.do Then go to the tab "US", at the bottom you can download excel files for the constituents of all these indices you mentioned for each day of the last year.
