Hi
Does anyone know where I can find data on the constituents of the Dow Jones back in 1980 and also the S&P500? I tried the link on "forbestadvice . com DJIA History" but it did not contain the constituents at 1980. Any ideas on the history of constituents would be a huge help.

Also I am trying to locate historical financials on companies - eg the P/E ratio and book value ratios for IBM and other companies. Does anyone know where I could source these?? Does Bloomberg go back as far as 1980??

Any advice or direction would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
John
