Chesnara info missing, HYPTUSS

#215599

Postby Arborbridge » April 17th, 2019, 10:21 am

I notice CSN, chesnara, returns a 0% for forecast yield in HYPTUSS. This because sharecast isn't publishing a forecast: but shouldn't the latest value of 5.8% be picked up and given in red on HYPTUSS?

I can alter manually, but it also means the tracking page values have to be changed manually.

Any ideas?

Hi Arb.

Shares like this are a problem. If the Forecast Yield is n/a, that clearly means no data is available, so we use the Latest Yield instead.

If the Forecast Yield is 0%, does that mean that the forecast is truly zero (perhaps dividends are expected to be halted) or does it really mean no data is available? We don't know.

HYPTUSS takes the view that if the data is numeric, that is what is used, otherwise we use the Latest Yield.

So, there is method in our madness. It was a considered decision. It could, of course, be changed, if that is what the users want.

You don't need t#o update the Tracking Sheet 'manually,' as such. Correct the data on the HYP sheet, then click on the Refresh button on the tracking sheet

P.S. you could always sell CSN and buy something which is correctly reported ;)

Ah - I see what's happening now you have explained it. And thanks for the tip about refreshing. A selling CSN wouldn't be completely stupid - I could replace it with PHNX - although Mrs Arb has that in her HYP.
