How can I add NASDAQ and the S&P 500 to the iPhone stocks widget?

Several users have asked both here at iPhoneFAQ and on a variety of discussion forums how to add NASDAQ and the S&P 500 indexes to their iPhone's stock widget. The Dow Jones Industrial average is included on the iPhone by default using the symbol ^DJI.

You can add the NASDAQ and S&P 500 using the following symbols:

NASDAQ: ^IXIC
S&P 500: ^GSPC

Thanks to b_behringer, an Apple Discussion Forums user, for the answer.

Search for ".sse" and you'll see some ridiculous thing like .000001 blah blah.

This was so helpful when I was walking a customer through adding S & P to their iPhone 5s!

Sorry, not sure how old this thread is but do these symbols also work on the iPhone6? I could probably check for myself, but since I've already gotten this far, maybe someone else might have the same question and this could be a time saver for them. Thanks in advance.
