I am not positive so don't take me for word, I know most brokerages pad the books with delayed or their best examples that can make them money (market makers)... yahoo could be delayed and stock charts could have an edge in the matter but I am just guessing here. I am pretty sure if you are a paying member of stock charts it is real time where yahoo probably is not. That might be why Yahoo's historic prices are flawed... idonno

The problem is in the Internet age is that everyone wants to be first...With speed you sacrifice accuracy.

I would suppose that the exchange sites would be the most accurrate...But as I've seen that is not always true...I've seen Nasdaq.com change things the next day on numerous occasions.

Most services get their info from the same place as far as prices...But there are other providers
