OH btw, seems to follow with tracked stocks, too--
Ormat technologies Price at close 50.19, LOSS for day , shows 58.01.
Halliburton 44.51 (Up for the day 23.95! )
Used to work fine-- WHA happened? jim

And, here are 8-29 08 end prices, and changes

AMB Properties 45.39 Change $20.27
Int Game tech 21.43 Change 7.17
Gabelli conv. 6,67 Change - 7.59
N.W.N.G. 48.73 Change -47.77

Tracked Stocks
Ormat 50.54 Change 3.64
Halliburton 43.94 Change -16.09

These should be in cents-- WHO ever heard of a Utility (makeing money)
Loseing $47.77 for the day Per Share? Especially when it shows days
diff. of $ 1.65 Per Share, when you subtract the days change??

B.T.W., stocks I have to hand enter show correct DAY price change!
What happened? is Comstock Quote service to blame, or is it
Quicken 2009? it worked correctly in 2008- What happened??

I certainly never meant to suggest there were no problems with
Q2009, nor that there were no ongoing problems from previous
versions.

Intuit is in the process of moving to a new system for
downloading security information: quotes/history/news etc.

They have already acknowledged that the new process is not
correct ... and not complete.

You can follow the course of the problem in the Quicken Forums,
and if you believe you have found something not already reported
there, you should definitely report it.

Maybe SOMEONE at Quicken/ Comstock reads this newsgroup!
Earlier today , ahd couple quotes that were still in the clouds,
on the (Days change (and percentage) still in the land of La-La
, but after this afternoon, looks like these figure have some sense
of reality! All seem to be within rational amounts (tho earlier, today
had couple quotes (with days change) that were SOME 100% off !
It is interesting when you see a stock that has lost 50% of its value,
in a day when the real change is more like 75 cents!
Again, thanks, Quicken looks like you fond MOST of the problen
(only stock NOT quoteing mnow is RDS.a (Royal dutch shell) - Jim
