Morningstar not working?

edited December 7 in Other Investing
Can’t pull up historical returns. Makes me wonder why I pay for this service. Seems to go down a lot on Saturdays. Maybe their work-from-home folks hung-over or out to lunch? Which leads to another question - Is the staff even located inside the U.S.?

PS - Seems to work for some funds, but not all. Was trying to see how LCORX / LCR have done lately. No longer own, but always interested in how former holdings did after selling.

    M* website is having issues.

    Looked up LCORX.
    Clicked "Performance" link.

    Performance
    There is no growth data available

    Trailing Returns
    There is no data available

    Tried two other mutual fund tickers.
    Received same results for 2nd fund; trailing returns were listed for 3rd fund.

    yes, i'm often running into the same stuff, too. catch as catch can. m-star is one screwed up puppy. reliable when they feel like it. can't say enough bad things about m-star.

    Thanks @Mark. I love M/W’s quote pages which ISTM are running Lipper. This year I was getting blocked out a lot and stopped using them. I thought that with my $45 subscription to Reuters (mentioned elsewhere) I’d gain access to Lipper - but apparently not.

    M* is back up! (Must have jarred them awake.:) )

    LCORX YTD +12.72% / 3 months +4.84% / 1 month +.84% / 1 week - .53%.

    No significance to shorter term numbers. Just wondered how it was doing since I sold couple months ago.

    must be a big snafu now, mobile version even splashes a 'broken' message.
    if only legacy mode was designed as a fallback for what seems likely to remain unreliable.
  • CrashCrash
    legacy is back up and apparently working. 1.46 p.m. hawaii. or 6.46 p.m. in the east.

    I've used M* premium many moons back. Going by that memory, it had less than 25% of what MFOP provides.

    I've yet to see any screener come anywhere close to MFOP at this price point in the 20+ years that I've been using screeners.
  • yogibearbullyogibearbull
    MFOP is great and I use it a lot. But note that MFOP data are updated on a cycle - most weekly, some biweekly or monthly. For long-term fund evaluations, this may not matter.

    MFOP has a superior fund screener...but many here hold stocks directly and need a decent screener.
    also, the M* portfolio tool is hard to beat w/any single alternative for real world asset consolidation.
