HIMIPref™ Update may be Delayed: 2006-08-15

Things are looking a little grim! I’ve just attempted to recover the prices and I’m getting the same thing as yesterday: the TSX Data recovery screen tells me that prices are available until today; so I plug in today’s date for my price list; and a message box appears advising “You have selected an end date for data which is not yet available. This query cannot be processed at this time.”

*sigh*

 I sent them an eMail today inquiring as to whether they intended to fix the problem quickly, but have not yet received a response. This post will be updated as more information becomes available.

 Update, 2006-08-15 9:30pm EDT: Well, I just gave it one last check and it’s the same old story … not too surprising, really, since it really looks like a programming bug introduced in their latest update rather than a data-updating-bug. So, again, the prices will have to be updated in the morning and I’ll post a note when the process is completed.

 Update, 2006-08-16 10am EDT: The prices have been recovered and the system is now updated. I will contact the TSX again today to see what the plans for the future are.
