    Just curious, if you have a second to look on your broker's newsfeeds....
    check out SNAP and see what time that news about Time Warner posted.

    Obviously it hit somewhere at 11:19.

    I didn't get it until 11:30.

    Is that a Bloomberg Terminal thing? Cause if it is, one could have paid for a whole year subscription on this one event alone.

    Try Reuters. Cannot be any worse than the rest of them.

    that's interesting..the news line you received from TR at 11:00 I didn't get until 11:31..received the same at 11:22. But, If there are different level of service from TR, I'm sure I'm not looking at the best. I don't day trade so for the most part it is acceptable, I wouldn't see it immediately anyhow.

    IB:
    First at 01:00 through Reuters (so that's 11:00 US... I'm in Australia)
    Then a hot news flash with DJ NewsWires at 01:19 (11:19)

    Seems a few where sleeping on the job or waiting on more info, since you could've got in at 11:00...
