Yahoo Finance History Data Out Dated

PPB always stay to be one of my favorite stocks. However, this is not the reason I want to blog about. What I want to point out is, Yahoo! Finance history data is having inaccuracy problem recently.

See the below screen shoot.



The latest history date is Jan 17, 2011. It seems that the data is out-dated for more than a month. (Today date is Feb 27, 2011).

If this issue affects you, perhaps you want to contact Yahoo! through Yahoo! Finance Data Inaccuracy Form (Hopefully they are willing to give a hand to you)
