The purpose of this page is to provide a description of each column in the Daily Historical Metadata Detail report. This report contains historical stock market metadata, also simply known as stock metadata, on companies featured on the Bulls with Bears page.
Also included are strategies and tips on using stock market metadata and stock metadata to improve your investing and trading skills.
Note regarding share prices and volume of shares traded: |
|---|
In this report, the prices (Open, High, Low and Close) and volume of shares traded will not match the actual values reported by the markets. The reason for showing a slight variance from the actual Price and Volume numbers in the Historical Metadata Detail report was to keep the main focus in all of the reports strictly on the metadata. The numbers you see for Price and Volume were generated from seed values. These were inserted into the Close price and Volume fields for the final day of this report and then combined with the metadata values to create this report. All metadata values are 100% accurate. So if the correct final Close price and Volume numbers are used as starting seeds, all pricing and volume numbers shown will be 100% accurate. |
