What would be the best website to keep track of foreign stocks profiles? I am particularly keeping an eye on the Nikkei and Hang Seng. I want to look at their these Japanese stocks individually? What would be a good site in order to do this?

I usually use MSN Money to keep track of the individual stocks that I own that are on the Dow Jones. Although I cannot find a site that allows me to take a look at these Japanese stocks in detail.
Thanks in Advance!

Try Bloomberg.com – but keep in mind, that you need to know the alphanumeric ticker symbols that companies are assigned on the Hong Kong and Tokyo/Japan exchanges.
For example, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China is “1398:HK” and Toshiba Corp. (of Japan) is “6502:JN”
If you enter either of these on Bloomberg.com in the quote look-up box, you should get the stock information of either of those companies. You’ll have to research each company of interest, though, to find out its individual alphanumeric ticker code.
