Does anyone use the stock ticker widget? I find it to be full of bugs. It often loses the percent/value of change, or sometimes gets it wrong. Sometimes text is drawn outside of its respective box.

I just hit F12 to take a look and saw one of my stocks was down -24.75. I almost crapped myself until I remembered it opened the day at $3.50 🙂 It gets annoying though.
 
I use it a bit, and haven't noticed anything strange...12 stocks on there currently showing absolute (not percent) change.
 
I have the same problem, it also won't remember my stock. Every time I change them it changes back to default.
