JLPSX showed a bogus +29.3%/-22.9% 3-day wiggle in Dec 2020: Yahoo dated
the 6.824 year-end cap-gain distribution on the 12-11 record date but the
market went ex-div on 12-14 (close 30.10 -> 23.22), so the raw Adj Close
column pre-applied the adjustment 3 days before the price actually fell.
New 'history' correction op ({date: {col: value}}) patches individual OHLC
cells at bundle assembly (full build, incremental, and correction-changed
recompute paths); check_corrections validates dates/columns; 4 new tests.
scripts/scan_adj_misalign.py finds the artifact set-wide: 481 hits on 278
symbols, overwhelmingly December year-end distributions of value funds
(JLPSX's class of fund). scripts/fix_adj_misalign.py repairs it
arithmetic-only (rescale adj in [event, ex-div) by (1-f); cumulative
returns unchanged, cross-checked implied dist vs the price drop). Applied
to the only curated-fund hit (JLPSX) and its sister class JLPYX (implied
dist 6.824 both = official amount; ex-div 2020-12-14). The remaining ~276
symbols are reported in reports/adj_misalign/scan.md for a bulk run.
Yahoo changed the shape of its event feed between downloads: a 2026-08
re-download of CVIX/JLPSX shows it no longer returns capitalGain events at
all (the dividend stream still carries the year-end rows), while stale
tickers now return no events at all. File-specific remove ops therefore
break silently on the next re-download, so the double-listing fix is now
expressed as layout-agnostic invariants applied at bundle assembly
(idempotent, hold for full and incremental builds):
dedup: [[date, amount]] keep at most one copy of a same-date/
same-amount cross-file pair (the capitalGain copy when both present)
drop_capg_copy: [date] the capitalGain row on that date is the
spurious copy of the dividend row
- data.py: apply_invariants() at bundle assembly + pure dedupe_event_rows()
shared with verify_official and tests (8 new test cases, 22 passing)
- JLPSX/CVSIX corrections rewritten with the invariants (2019-08-08 now
keeps the dividend amount per the verified same-date pattern)
- scripts/scan_double_listing.py: whole-dump sweep -> reports/double_listing/
6,421 symbols scanned: 1,218 with same-amount pairs (6,589), 1,631 with
differing-amount pairs (12,366, reported only - not distinguishable from
legitimate same-day div+capg without per-fund official data), 83 with
repeated within-file rows (ingest keep-last already collapses them)
- scripts/apply_dedup_corrections.py: bulk 'dedup' corrections for the
1,218 same-amount symbols (1,212 new files; the 6 verified funds keep
their explicit, official-verified corrections)
- scripts/check_corrections.py: integrity check for every correction op
against the actual (frozen) files - caught a mis-filed CVSIX entry
Scanning the verified funds for same-date div/capg pairs showed the Yahoo
double-listing mechanism in every one of the 7 'mismatch' stale funds, and
the official fiscal-year totals pin down which amount is true:
- identical-amount pairs (JLPSX, GDEUX, GSOUX, FAEVX, CVSIX, FZAGX): the
year-end distribution is in both files; keep the capitalGain copy,
remove the dividend copy (GDEUX: FY2021-08 1.73 = 1.625+0.115 and
FY2022-08 0.39 = 0.348+0.036 after; JLPSX/GSOUX/FAEVX/CVSIX same)
- differing-amount pairs (OTCRX, SHXIX, FZAGX, FGIZX, CVSIX): the
dividend-file amount is the true one in every officially-verified case
(OTCRX FY2023 0.85 = 0.852488, SHXIX FY2023 1.01 = 1.0078, FZAGX all
four FYs exact); the capitalGain row is the spurious copy
After corrections GDEUX/SHXIX/CVSIX/JLPSX verify 'ok' against their
filings. The same pattern is extended to these funds' pre-2021 history
(marked mechanism-inferred in the correction notes). Remaining residuals:
FAEVX and FGIZX are also missing regular quarterly dividend rows in the
Yahoo dump (official FY totals exceed local even after dedup) - needs the
funds' per-date distribution archives; FIKAX's official extraction is
ambiguous (systematic ~0.12/yr offset = wrong class table in the
500-fund consolidated Fidelity N-CSRS).
- EFTS queries now include 497/497K (many fund families publish their
per-fund highlights there, not in the consolidated N-CSR) and re-rank
hits by registrant name match (ticker/brand words), newest first,
capped at 2 filings per CIK
- new parse_per_share_blocks for the JPMorgan-style 'Per share operating
performance' table (per-class value blocks; dashes = zero)
- parse_highlights now tolerates row labels split across table cells
(modernized N-CSRS format, e.g. Calamos 2026)
- region finders: word-flexible name patterns (US vs U.S., class letters),
self-validating per-share regions (a candidate block must match the
local series, so a name mention in notes doesn't attribute another
fund's tables in a combined 58 MB report)
- main() keeps the best result across candidate filings (N-CSRS vs 497
can round differently) and stops early on 'ok'
- local_series applies the corrections overlay so corrected funds verify
against their filing
Results: JLPSX and CVSIX now 'ok' (all bounded fiscal years agree with
the official filings); CVSIX also gets a 2023-12-21 0.510 capital-gain
correction. bnd/pmaix still ok (no regression).
