     This Current Report on Form 8-K/A amends the Current Report on Form 8-K
filed on May 24, 2000 to incorporate Item 7(a), Financial Statements of Business
Acquired and Item 7(b), Pro Forma Information.

Item 2.    ACQUISITION OF ASSETS
           ---------------------

           On May 10, 2000, Multex.com, Inc. (the "Registrant") acquired
BuzzCompany.com Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Buzz"), pursuant to an Agreement
and Plan of Merger dated May 10, 2000. In the merger, the Registrant issued
approximately 1,058,000 shares of its common stock, assumed certain outstanding
options of Buzz and paid approximately $500,000 in cash. The transaction was
accomplished by merging a wholly owned subsidiary of the Registrant into Buzz.
Buzz survived the merger and became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Registrant.
A copy of the Agreement and Plan of Merger is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and
incorporated herein by reference. The merger consideration was determined in
arm's-length negotiations between the Registrant and Buzz. The transaction is
intended to qualify as a tax-free reorganization under the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended.

          A copy of the press release issued by the Registrant on May 10, 2000
concerning the foregoing transaction is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, and
incorporated herein by reference.
