    The publishing date of the article is October 29, 1986, so the exchange rate seems to be about right. I don't know what it is the interest in a 21-year old news article.
     
  4. good call, lol, im an idiot. I was looking at the wrong date. I was searching for an oil company in newfoundland thats supposed to be a really big deal soon.

    I dont believe tips usually, but I try and check them out just in case I like it anyway.

    The Times didn't print it... someone must have run a search.

    If you search nytimes.com for, say, "Newfoundland Energy", that Reuters story from 1986 pops up as #6 out of 117 results, using the default sort order, by closest match.
     
  9. I stumbled on an article from 1929 that way lol... I was searching for "NYSE" and "daylight savings time".

    Ahh... the roaring twenties, who could ever forget 'em?
