Chicago, IL. - December 13, 2000 - Briefing.com (www.briefing.com)
today announced an expanded agreement with Yahoo! Inc., a
leading global Internet communications, commerce and media

including four new pages of market analysis. Under the
agreement, Briefing.com is providing real-time Market updates

providing a version of In Play® on the newly launched
Market Overview page that users can view by clicking on the

updated three times per day by recommendations from major Wall
Street brokerage firms; the Splits Calendar, succinct lists of
upcoming U.S. stock splits; and the Economic Calendar, forecasts
