Are dividend data still being updated within the fundamental data for ETFs?
Just one example (but there are many):
Symbol = DIA The last dividend pay date shown by IQFeed fundamental data is 5/16/2011, but two monthly dividends have come and gone since then, with no dividend information being updated in the fundamental data. Same applies for SPY (one dividend missing) and other ETFs as well.
Has something changed in the way dividend data is being returned?

Missing dividend problems continue. For example (and this is just one; there apparently are many) is the latest dividend for symbol TLT. July dividends have been declared and paid, and still there is no update in the fundamental data.
Dividend data was working great for years; now many many dividends are just not being recorded. Is there any plan to resolve this?

Matthew, my apologies for not following up previously. We switched to a new feed from our fundamental data provider which did not include dividends for ETFs. We are working with the provider to get this data from another feed but until that happens, ETF dividend information will not update.
