: : A number of my funds show precipitous drops on their graphs as a result of dividends. I thought these were supposed to be smoothed out. I go to Yahoo (Adjusted Historical) but nothing seems to change. Am I omitting a step some where?

: Hi Harry,
: Yahoo (Adjusted Historical) only adjusts dividends when it has them
: available. It doesn't have them for funds, only stocks. This would
: lead to the drops you see. If you record the distributions in FM, and then
: use the "Price + Dist." graph this will smooth out these dips.

: Thanks,
: Mark
