Incorrect adjusted close for XLF on September 19, 2016
On September 19, 2016, the XLRE (Real Estate ETF) was spun-off from the XLF (Financial Services ETF). While the closing price od the XLF appears to be correctly adjusted, the adjusted close shows a +31% return from Sep 16th to Sep 19th (which is clearly incorrect). The problem looks like the spinoff being applied as both a cash dividend and a stock split. (There was a small cash dividend on that day, but not a $4.44 dividend.)
Please correct this.
