52 week NTOY trading range - Yahoo! Finance to correct I sent an e-mail to Yahoo! recently regarding the NTOY 52 week trading range that they provide on their quote page: $0.25 - $468.75. It's incorrect and carries forward BANH reverse data. The correct 52 week range is offered by BigCharts: $4 - $19.50 Yahoo! will be correcting the NTOY 52 week range shortly. In part I received this response from them this morning: "... 2) As you have noticed we've experienced some technical difficulties with the merger data for NTOY. We are currently investigating these problems, and we hope to have a solution shortly. Our engineering and production staff for Yahoo! Finance have already been alerted. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Regards, Yahoo! Customer Care" Very nice volume for NTOY - another high - curious to see what it'll be at the close. David.

Disney added to web site "Brand Names" netoy.com 1/4 page ad in Monday's The Wall St Journal to accompany web site launch. Yesterday there was the NTOY ad in USAToday, Life Section, page D8 (from memory). Good News today on very strong volume. However, do your own DD - as with any stock. David.

Another NTOY charting error in cyberspace - by SPOT :( Does anyone out there on these 'stock data + information' sites care about the accuracy of their charts/data? Look here at the NTOY chart/data from Snap: snap.com Same problem as with Yahoo! #reply-8546389 I've just sent the following e-mail to SNAP: ++++++++++++ Your NTOY chart is wrong. snap.com Please read my comments on SI. Message 8546389 The NTOY reverse merger with BANH resulted in NTOY acquiring the listing ability of BANH. All BANH directors and officers were removed. There is no residual relationship remaining between NTOY and BANH. Your chart takes into account the two reverse splits BANH undertook: 1-for-25 and 1-for-10. NTOY never traded at $400+ for heavens sake! Recall that Siebert did the same thing - reverse merger with a furniture company! I'll post on SI to say your chart is wrong - hoping this will encourage you to fix it promptly. TIA, David. ++++++++++++ Another example of why data/charts be cross-referenced. At least I can trust BigCharts. They at least appear to be on the ball - is anyone else? I love Yahoo!'s comment "As you have noticed we've experienced some technical difficulties with the merger data for NTOY...." What? Technical difficulties? Here's some free advice from a Ph.D.: (1) Archive BANH data (2) Start NTOY database from March 15, 1999 There that wasn't hard was it? I will waive my normal consultation fee this time. David :)

MSNBC e-mail, Re: "Half right NTOY chart" E-mail sent to: Commerce@MSNBC.com Dear MSNBC: The more I check out 'factual' stock data/charts in cyberspace the more disillusioned I become. Your NTOY 'Basic' chart is ridiculous: investor.msn.com Please refer to the NTOY chart on BigCharts - they at least have it right. You get it half right - your dates are correct at least. Yahoo! and SNAP sites are both wrong. I suspect there are (many) others. Here are my SI posts FYI: Message 8552642 Message 8552850 Message 8546389 I have put my comments on SI concerning your chart hoping that this will encourage you to do something about the basicness of your 'Basic' chart. Are you taking averaging too far? I suggest that you need to modify your algorithm(s). techstocks.com TIA, David. ++++++ I'm not going to go around all the sites that carry stock chart/data information. I suspect that many contain erroneous data. Please feel free to cut and paste the content of my e-mail's should you also find incorrect data/charts. People - this isn't rocket science. David :)
