Everything seems to have frozen on NIKKEI and AUS Stocks...

Is something going on or is there a software **** up on the go..

Or do I just look at crap sites!?

Ocean pacific markets dropping 2%+ at present!

Bloomberg and CNBC have both got the Nikkei down exactly 1% and have done for the last 10 mins at 14544.12 me thinks the PPT have realised this is a cheaper way to bring stability to the market.


I suspect Jiggerypockery.

Is it my imagination, or are software glitches with respect to financial data far more frequent these days?

I always used to use reuters.co.uk - but, of late their data is frequently garbage...

We seem to have 'false' spikes/crashes here there and everywhere... what gives? Was it always like this?

Something is def iffy at the moment!

Yahoo site is showing data over 30 mins old and nothing at all for Aus ORD. Nikkei Net Interative is showing 1% drop as already mentioned and BBC is showing 2.1% drop and 48% drop depending on how it feels when you refresh...

Does anyone have a paid for decent set up and can confirm whats going on ?! I think software gone well fubared or there has been a major movement and its all crashed under the strain!

Apparently the Nikkei has a lunch break which explains the current down 1% freeze according to CNBC stock markets having a lunch break, which was news to me.

As an employee of Reuters (Thomson) I feel obliged to inform you that the data you receive is far from "garbage".
BTW - I'm checking using 3000 Xtra to check prices. A lot quicker and more reliable than the websites quoted so far on this thread.

:-) As a free-loading non-customer of Reuters, I have to say that the data on the top right of http://www.reuters.co.uk/ has been gibberish on several occasions when I've glanced so-far during 2008. Maybe the data isn't wrong, but it hasn't been clear and/or relevant. For years I was unable to fault the service, but - lately - it has left a fair bit to be desired.

Incorrect.

If you had said China, Bangkok or Bangladesh you may have bought some credibility.

Most IT staff are based in UK / USA, however many have been outsourced to Fujitsu.
