Take a look at the time scale on this chart

IBM

Shows 5 days of trading. Yesterday is shown as Monday Jan 31 and today is shown as Monday Feb 28!!.

Now how could you ever get something like that? Makes you wonder what other things are going wrong but can't be seen, yet.

I checked some other stock quotes and they all say today is Feb 28.

Please refer to the NRL's lasco imagery so beloved of the Bravo Bureaucrat. The GMT clock remains at 100 century date (and thanks NRL for allowing data to remain uncontaiminated). Something's going on but maybe not negative... keep an open mind...
