Google Docs glitch and the TLT ticker
Posted: Mon Oct 31, 2011 9:49 pm
Today, Google docs (spreadsheets) is giving the company "Theralese Technologies" for the ticker TLT instead of the correct iShares fund :)
That is, when I write
"Theralese Technologies" is the output instead of iShares Barclays 20+ Year Treas Bond.
Does anyone else see this glitch?
In yahoo finance, where I don't have this problem with TLT, I am unable to find out what the real ticker is for Theralese.
Edit: oh gosh. VTI is showing up as Valdor Technology International Inc. and IAU As Intrepid Mines Limited. Has google docs been hacked?
Edit: Hmm, I think these are being read as if they are Canadian companies with a .V appended. VTI.V really is Valdor Tech.
Feel free to delete this thread.

Code: Select all
=GoogleFinance(A10;"name")
