LatestFilingDate < LatestNewsDate

Shouldn’t the SEC date be after the news date? There are 271 listed stocks with a very old SEC date.

When dates were implemented, we unfortunately decided to supply missing dates as 1970-01-01 instead of the same NA used everywhere else. To account for this, compare against 19700101.

Eval(LatestFilingDate != 19700101, LatestFilingDate, NA) < Eval(LatestNewsDate != 19700101, LatestNewsDate, NA)

Note that these factors provide dates corresponding to period end specified by LatestPeriodDate. As such, if a date is unavailable, it becomes 19700101.
