Rick,
not only that, I just discovered that historical prices sometimes
diverge from
reality. Take a favourit of mine -SINA- on July 17th:
Jul-17-03 25.84 26.53 23.00 24.50 10,360,700 24.50
http://table.finance.yahoo.com/k?s=sina&g=d
On the NASDAQ home you find this
07/17/2003 25.840 26.530 24.150 24.500 10,357,240

its=off&movingaverage=none&lowerstudy=volume&comparison=off&index=&dri
lldown=off&symbol=SINA&selected=SINA
Since I had ordered a stoploss at 23.42 this mattered to me quite
some, especially since SINA rebounded the next day to 29$ <g>
Also the charts in AB will show wrong data if you use Yahoo as a
source.
I have emailed Yahoo and hope they will provide some answers...
Regards
Andreas
