I am a retired portfolio manager and, for many, years used Advent products. Upon retirement, I started using Microsoft Money for my own accounts. It has not been nearly as satisfactory as Advent. I am now looking for a better solution for tracking and analyzing my investments.
I currently use Schwab for all my accounts. I am assuming that there is no problems with downloads from Schwab.
I have a quite a few mortgage backed securities (GNMA's and FNMA's). How does Fund Manager treat the return of principal and especially the monthly reduction in balance remaining? Will I be forced to a lot of hand posting, as I have done in Money?
I also write covered options against individual stocks and ETF's. Are there any problems that I should anticipate with this activity?
Are there any difficulties associated with the above activities in preparing for tax reporting.
Thank you.
