Previous Close Incorrect, prior day closing values for Dow 30 on 1/16/18!!!!!
At 12:53 p.m. ET, the summary pages for AAPL, DWDP and MSFT incorrectly state their prior day's closes as 175.28, 75.22 and 88.08, respectively. Per the historical data page for each stock, the closes were, in fact, and 177.09, 75.41 and 89.60, respectively. PLEASE CORRECT AND, FOR GOD'S SAKE FOR YOUR CREDIBILITY, FIGURE OUT WHY THESE ERRORS KEEP TURNING UP. I'm these errors every day.

One more issue I found on 1.17.18. BRK-A. Your summary page said the Tuesday close was $315,225.00. That was the Jan. 12 close. The Jan. 16 close was 315,261.00.

This is slightly off topic, but I continue to note that one day's closes on ETFs can and do change from midnight ET or later until I start looking at them in the morning. Sometimes it's a penny. Sometimes it's five cents. It is noticeable, and I don't find any boilerplate that says those numbers may change overnight.

More problems today 1/17/18 with DWDP, JPM, MRK, TRV, and UNH. ALL are showing as a prior day close what was actually the Friday close.

One more: XLV. Yahoo says the close on Friday was $86.16. The historical data page says the Friday close was $86.82.

Same problem occurs with EFA, GLD, AND RSX. This is not a function of dividends. What your summary pages are showing are the closes for THURSDAY 1/11/18. U.S. markets and important foreign markets were open on Friday 1/12. My guess I find it on many others. Can you refresh the database or something to get the numbers right?

Another *****, not at Yahoo, but at the data providers. As late as Sunday at midnight PT (yes, Pacific), the close for Friday 1/12/18 on the XLI was listed at $80.16. Today, it's listed as $80.17. Why does it take so long to get the right numbers?

Yahoo says at 10:45 p.m. ET on 1/14 that the prior day close for ^BSESN is 34,503.49. The India market is open. The Friday (1.12.18) close per your historical prices page is 34,592.39. That's what I have. Your database (or your data provider's) continues to have STICKINESS ISSUES.

The summary page for KO on 1.12/18 says the Thursday close was $46.07. The historical data page (https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/KO/history?p=KO) says the close was $46.04. That would justify the 8 cents gain for the stock on the day. $46.07 was the WEDNESDAY close. This seems to be a problem across Yahoo and needs to be addressed between yourselves and your data provider. I'm getting tired of calling it out, but when the numbers are wrong, it affects my spreadsheets, and I am forced to spend a few minutes chasing down the correct data.

Yahoo says the close for the ^tnx was 2.53%, down 0.02 or 0.75%. The 0.75 works ONLY if the actual close was 2.351%. That's what the interactive charts says was the actual close. Please correct.

You seem to have a sticky database. The summary page on the XLE today (1/11/18) says the prior day close on the XLE was 75.23. That was the Monday close. The Tuesday close, per the historical data page today, was $75.14. Can we get the database (or get whoever generates it) fixed?

The prior-day closes for these stocks and ETFs are all values for 1/8/18. The correct values for GS and HD should be $253.94 and $193.10, respectively. For DBC and MDY, the correct values on the summary pages should be $16.181 and $352.90, respectively. I am not sure why these errors keep cropping up. But they are persistent and hurt your credibility.
