Data Accuracy: Reuters vs Yahoo vs MSN

Hi all,

I have done a cross check for US market EOD data using Reuters Datalink vs Yahoo vs MSN (Have not tried Quote.com).

And to my surprised, i found that there are quite a number of data inaccurately displayed by Yahoo (as i cross check the data with my broker as well).

Does anyone out there encounter the same thing? Does that mean Free Data feed provider e.g. Yahoo has data reliability issue?

Maybe you get what you pay for is right? Please feedback your findings. Thanks a lot in advance!
