How to add the S&P 500 index to your Dashboard Stocks widget
The Stocks Dashboard widget that comes with Mac OS X is nice, but it doesn’t display the S&P 500 index by default and there’s no easy way to guess the ticker symbol.
To add the S&P 500 index to your Dashboard Stocks widget, use ticker symbol SPX.X.
Update: For OS X Leopard, use the symbol ^GSPC.
