Thanks for the heads-up.
Have you told them?
Not that I expect them to do anything, they never have, but I suppose they should at least be told.
I did finagle an extension to my subscription once.

FYI, the prices in this week's file seem to be the correct prices from exactly a year ago, matching those in the update file dated 2023-02-10:
DDD at $11.15 (actually closed Friday at $4.81)
MMM at $198.94 (actually $94.87)
ATEN at $6.13 (actually $13.15)
and, presumably, so on.
Oddly, the market cap figures this week seem right, based on a few spot checks.
So, if you like, it seems you could engineer a good guess at the prices by dividing the reported market cap by the reported common shares outstanding.
I tried 3 stocks and it works, within rounding error.

It is my experience that when the prices are wrong, all return based values are also wrong. BUT - the other values appear to be correct. At least, in as much as you can expect anything they produce to be correct. When a concern spits out rubbish consistently as they do the validity of everything becomes suspect.

I usually write to alert them, in case anybody cares. In the past they have acknowledged my message apologetically and promised
to correct it the following week. The last couple of times I got no response at all.

This week, prices as of 2/16/24, is garbage once again. It seems that they can no longer go two weeks in a row without messing up.
Argh. *&^%*& 8-(
