I entered all of this yesterday, the 17th and updated these transactions. I
made some major changes in the funds that I own. I sold a bunch and replaced
with some newer ones.
When I ran the online update, all of the new funds, except for 3 of them
didn't update. I see the prices when I look at the individual portfolio
account and click on summary, Holdings, Show:value. Each lines of the
security shows a variety of info along with the quote price. In the case
yesterday, the quote/price box was empty and I couldn't change it. (I
attempted to click into it and manually type in the price. This was done
around 7:00 PM west coast time.
This morning, after I posted the initial question here, I re-ran the update
the prices came thru OK.
The funds in question are: MALOX, PRTNX and PTTAX
It appears all's well at this point. Strange stuff
