: : The recorded prices are correct Mon thru Friday. On Sat.-Sunday (days with 0 volume) the price AND the chart displayed is the initial purchase price (bogus). This happens every week (incl. the 3 days of Labor Day weekend). The Yahoo prices on weekdays are the same as recorded in FM.

: Hi Harry,

: It sounds like somehow you have incorrect pricing data recorded for the weekends. I'm not sure how this got that way, but you can pretty easily delete this pricing data by using "Edit / Investment Data / Delete Prices / Date Range - All Investments" and delete all pricing data for the full history of your portfolio for Saturday and Sunday only. You'll want to un-check the Monday through Friday choices, and only delete pricing on the weekends. You may then have to go and delete a couple of bad pricing left over, like on Labor Day weekend, where the closed day didn't fall on a Saturday or Sunday.

Well, that workaround worked,thanks. Although I wonder what caused this goofy behavior. I just opened another new investment, downloaded the prices for 3 months back, and the chart came out OK.
