Some numbers do not match between value line and stockcentral data.  I.E. Highs and low prices for the year(s). Should they match? I looked at MDR company data and noticed a difference.

Thanks, Ron

No, they may not match, and that's okay. StockCentral uses closing prices to determine the high and low prices. S&P uses intraday prices to determine highs and lows, and Value Line may do the same. The differences shouldn't be significant or affect your evaluation in any way. If there are significant differences, let us know and we'll take a closer look.

Additionally, Value Line's annual high and low prices are calendar year prices. If the company's fiscal year doesn't end on December 31, the Value Line numbers aren't the fiscal year high and low prices. StockCentral reports fiscal year high and low prices based on daily closing prices.
