Default Re: mutual fund prices not updating (again)

Forgot to mention, you see the same problem on the MSN Money web site.

Default Re: mutual fund prices not updating (again)

Yes, it's back. But it isn't quite what you describe. Yesterday the prices
WERE updated, but the date was not. e.g. at Jan 18, 2:30 AM CST, all 5 of my
American funds showed the correct prices for Jan 17, but they were dated Jan
13. OTOH, the prices and dates for the Vanguard funds were prices for Jan 17,
dated correctly.

Now, at 8:00 PM on Jan 18, things have deteriorated further. For American
Funds I still see the prices from 1/17 but dated 1/13, i.e. they have not been
updated at all since yesterday. For the Vanguard funds, I see 1/18 prices
dated 1/17.

Tech Support says this is a problem with their quotes supplier. Sounds to me
as though, after 3 months of this, they need a new supplier.

AFAIK, the only "work around" is to go to the fund's web site, get the price,
and enter it manually.

Default mutual fund prices not updating (again)

Since Jan. 13, the Money 2004 version is NOT picking up mutual fund closing
prices. It is truly annoying to have to look them up and manually enter them.
Also, of concern is those poor users who rely on the valuations and do not
even realize they aren't updating. We went through this same problem in late
October, 2005 - but now it seems the problem is not fixed.

Please advise if there is a work-around solution. Thanks.
