Each shows in its own currency. They just used the 27th instead of the 31st
as the previous day's close. Today all seems to be well again.

Just a thought. How do you know if the price is Cdn or US? Do those
exchanges quote in either currency depending on the application or
client location?

Upon doing a little further research, it looks like they used March 27
instead of March 31 as the previous day's closing price to determine the
change.

Changes in stocks on the New York Stock Exchange appear to be correct.

On further checking, it looks like many, if not all of the investments in the
"Investment Summary" and "Best and Worst Performers" show correct closing
prices but incorrect dollar and precent change amounts.

Default Stock price change inaccuracies.

Money 2006 - Canadian Edition.
I've noticed today that the change in price of at least some stocks is
inaccurate. For example, JNR Resources - JNN-X (TSX Venture Exchange), shows
on the Home Page as having increased in price by $0.12 or 11.7% even though
it was unchanged from the previous day's close. If I do a performance
report, it shows correctly because in the reports the change is actually
calculated by taking the difference between the current day's and previous
day's prices. I also noticed a similar discrepancy in iUnits S&P/TSX Gold
shares. This is a Canadian version of a Barclays iShares exchange traded
fund listed on the TSX. I haven't checked any other stocks yet to see how
widespread the problem is.
