Sometimes an OTC and other special securities may be unavailable one day, then be available again a few days later. This behavior can be caused by a lack of trading activity. If a security is not traded for three days, it is removed from the MSN Money Investing list of actively traded securities. When the security is traded again, data for the security becomes available in MSN Money Investing.
