: : Hi Mark,

: : Last night (11/09) I had no problem updating my portfolio using Yahoo. Tonight (11/10) almost 90% of my stocks would not update. It appears Yahoo has changed their symbols - are you aware of this??

: Hi Derek,

: No, I'm not aware of any changes. I just tested some and they are all
: still working. Can you give me an example ticker symbol that isn't working?
: If you go to Yahoo's site with your browser, do they say the symbol
: changed, and can you see the quote?

: Thanks,

Hi Mark;

A lot of the symbols are income trusts in the format (abc.un) but here's one - Pengrowth Energy (TSX) - yesterday Pengrowth worked with (Yahoo) pgfb.to - tonight that symbol won't update and Pengrowth requires (Yahoo) pgf-b.to. This seems to be the case for many of the income trusts and class a,b,c shares.
