& Boolean AND

The ampersand (&) serves as the Boolean AND operator in v301 news keyword searches. Using the AND operator creates a working set of headlines that contain keywords matching ALL criteria in the query. For example, the following query,

/Beijing&China

returns only those headlines containing both the word China and Beijing.

You can use the ampersand to join as many criteria as you want. The practical limitation is the likelihood of headlines containing all criteria.
