Clearing the record
The Philly 50 list that ran in Sunday Business contained two errors. The stock prices listed for the previous week, which should have been for Dec. 14, were actually closing prices for Dec. 11. Additionally, the weekly percentage change in stock prices was calculated incorrectly, not only by using data from the wrong day but also showing increases when declines occurred and decreases instead of gains.
