 PROFILE
Don't confuse AMEX (The American Stock Exchange) with that credit card in your wallet. The exchange is a subsidiary of the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD). It provides a floor-based auction market that complements the NASD's Automated Quotations system (Nasdaq) market. (Both are units of NASD.) AMEX lists more than 600 smaller, newer issues and specializes in trading derivatives, foreign issues, and American depositary shares; index fund trading now makes up a significant chunk of its daily volume. The market is the second-largest options exchange (behind the Chicago Board Options Exchange).
