- Every
month the Internet For Lawyers' free Internet
legal research newsletter delivers this kind of
useful information to your e-mail inbox.

- Company
Sleuth, the web site that marketed
itself as the "top covert information
specialist providing free, legal, inside
information on publicly traded companies" on
the Internet no longer offers any of that
information -- for fee or free.
-
- While the site
is still active, it now only offers links to
current financial news in two categories --
"Stock Exchange News" and "Stock
Watch News." It is no longer possible to
track individual companies or produce the company
"reports" that were Company Sleuth's
most useful tool.
-
- Gone are the
twenty-seven categories of information in which
the site formerly aggregated information for
users. The "old" Company Sleuth
"reports" included recent news, there
was also an abundance of other information
pending litigation, recent patent or trademark
registrations, rumors, insider stock trading, and
SEC filings. Other unusual information the site
used to collect ranged from "earnings
whispers" to alerts of upcoming conference
calls and video conference events on specific
user-defined companies.
-
- The only
information now available beyond the news
headlines is an article search utilizing the
e-Library.com database of news articles and the
Encyclopedia.com reference site.
-
- Earlier, this
month, the following message appeared on a
hard-to-reach page within the Company Sleuth
site:
-
- A
message from Company Sleuth...
-
- Company
Sleuth would like to thank you for
helping us provide a web site for the
discerning investor. Unfortunately, we
have decided to no longer provide the
tracking and notification services of
Company Sleuth.
-
- We
understand that you still have a desire
for great news and information on the
market. That's why we have created this
page specifically for you with some of
the latest market information. You can
also use the Company Sleuth Research
Library, powered by eLibrary, to dig even
deeper into the latest news on your
favorite companies.
-
- Currently this
page is no longer available.
-
- In May 2001,
the site informed its registered users it would
begin to charge for reports and company tracking
services it had previously offered for free.
There is no information offered at the site
regarding any reimibursement of subscription fees
paid in the May conversion.
