New Market analysis source opens up for Jamaican investors

KINGSTON, Jamaica – A new electronic newsletter, Daily Market Update, which provides timely information to JN Fund Managers’ (JNFM) investors, is now available to a wider audience, says Sharon Whitelocke, Research and Development Manager.

The Daily Market Update, which offers a summary of key developments in the local and international financial markets, was launched in November 2009 and the response from recipients has been so positive that the report is now available, at no cost, to the public via email.

“Our aim is to provide concise information on market developments,” Mrs. Whitelocke said. The Market Update aims to assist investors, principally new entrants to the market, with global trends while reducing an overload of information.
