Wrong Name for Stock
For our club's investments list, Bivio is showing "NZ Corp
(LIPD)" instead of "Lipid Sciences Inc" (ticker symbol
LIPD).

Using Bivio, I checked Zacks for LIPD and they had a mixture
of information-- the company name, news and quotes were
correct for Lipid Sciences but their "Company Description"
was for another company. I have emailed them about their
error.

This must mean that Bivio gets the stock name information
for the investment list from another source. Can this be
corrected as well?

TIA

Spoke too soon: the email to Zacks about the correction of
their LIPD data bounced back as undeliverable. The
"<info@zacks.com>"email address that I used was from their
website.

We don't have a better address for Zacks, sorry.

On the bottom of your Investments page, you'll see that we get our
data from Commodity Systems, Inc. Zacks does not provide us with
data.

We'll send CSI a message about the error. Thanks for pointing it out.
