It was past tense as well- he was talking about the 12 months prior to his post when it was free.
Hi
We know the “free” part is in the past tense
Present perfect tense, something started in the past and still ongoing
Fundamental data on stocks (possibly most) is out of date on the platform. Some by many weeks. Things like market cap, PE ratio, etc. I am not sure who T12 uses for the feed. You would think this woud be one of the things that remain current. I raised this issue a couple of months ago, but is yet to be resolved.
The data is downloaded from Reuters and is updated automatically on the platform several times a day. If there are stocks that are not updated, you can post them and we will gladly take a look.
I will give an example. Some key ratios are wrong, eg: Microsoft:
1.63T market cap vs 1.77T actual (not even close!?)
37.22 pe ratio vs 34.89 actual
$5.8 EPS vs 6.71 actual
etc…
No point. Almost every stock I check has a market cap, for example, out of date. Usually valuation that is several weeks out of date. Perhaps, your Reuters feed isn’t activated properly, I don’t know, or you could get your feed from another data provider.
Thanks for providing the Microsoft example. That’s just one example. As said earlier, nearly all are out of date, and others far more out of whack.
