Welcome to our new blog, Mouse in the House. We’ve been busy these past few months improving our WatchMouse web site with a new home page, navigation and content. As part of those improvements and in addition to our Labs blog which is geared toward more technical types, we’ve added Mouse in the House, a general blog for news and information about WatchMouse, what we’re working on, industry insight and opinion.
We’ll also make company product announcements here so you will be the first to know when we release new products, or make product enhancements and improvements.
Today we released several reports that measured the availability and uptime of the companies’ websites that make up the different Stock Exchange indexes in 11 countries (NASDAQ website status, FTSE 100 website status, CAC 40 website status, OMX Stockholm 30 website status, DAX 30 website status, FTSE MIB website status, IBEX 35 website status, AEX website status, BEL 20 website status, ASX 50 website status, SMI website status). The websites we monitored were of the largest public companies in the world…and a lot of them didn’t fair too well.
We thought it would be fun to stack all the exchanges against each other to see which country’s companies had the best uptimes. Drum roll please…Sweden’s OMX 30 companies had the best aggregated uptime with 99.42%, the United State’s NASDAQ companies came in second with 99.4%, and France’s CAC 40 companies in third with 99.19%. The worst was Australia’s ASX 50 companies with 97.52%.
Stay tuned for more news, information and opinion and watch out….there’s a Mouse in the House!
