Since 2004 on, Dow Jones has also managed the Wiltshire indexes, a group of indexes based on the Dow Jones Wiltshire 5000 which comprises "all U.S. equity securities with readily available prices".

The Wiltshire indexes can be linked to  from the Dow Jones homepage and the partner page for the indexes is: http://www.wilshire.com/Indexes/ 

The component lists for the indexes are only available by subscription.
