Wild discrepancy among fund reporting venues …

How can the reported results for PRPFX for 1 year be so radically different?

CNBC -5.73% 1 year

Yahoo +7.27% 1 year

M* -9.50% 1 year

    No idea. FWIW the WSJ, Barron's and MarketWatch all show -8.95% 1-yr return.

    All are probably for different reporting periods...

    Yahoo 7.27% is 1 year thru 3/31
    M* -9.5% is correct
    Fund site -8.74% is thru 6/30

    Dunno. I added about 5 more trackers this morning. Figure if 2 agree on something it’s probably about right. Agree there are different reporting periods. And some aren’t up to date. Still, the difference here is concerning. Fido is great on mutual funds. I trust their numbers. But they don’t seem to have much performance history on ETFs.

    Thanks @rsorden / @Mark for the extra digging!
