Intro

Warning: I have absolutely no training in financial portfolio management. 

These pages are a bundle of markup experiments to gather together some NZXE stock info for a 'buy and hold' stock portfolio of dividend paying shares.  The output of my experiments will be some readable tables which may be of aid for the type of portfolio I seeking. Secondly I want to make explict some sort of decision tree analysis of the data contained in the tables.

 

First Job: Create a simple list of shares in the NZXE from
http://www.nzx.com/markets/all-securities/NZSX
Now the Doctype markup http://www.nzx.com declares itself as xhtml strict, how ever it is even well formed, so an extra tagsoup step is required for churning out a welformed xml document that can be parsed with xml tools.
