Phsst -
True, I have seen some gaps on mutual fund data - e.g. DFSCX a fund with a million dollar
minimum,  where the data has not been adjusted for distributions over the years,
but in most all of the mutual funds like the ones I use to derive signals
they are spot on, i.e. when I run a TRADE signal on FastTrack and one 
on AB/QP3 I get the same signal turns and the same CARs. If you spot
and error the support group will handle it and will very quickly add recent new issues on request.
Recent one was Aries Maritime and another was a name change on FUSMX.  
 
So I don't completely agree with a blanket statement and like most issues
you can't toss the value of the QP mutual fund data away with a headline or
a soundbite
 
Best regards

Dan:  Great report and very well written.

<While I don't invest in Mutual Funds, I do like to use them sometimes
as economic indicators.   With TC, they are an added cost item.  With
Quotes Plus, they come as part of the standard package.>

Everything else you said about QP3 was accurate, but the above could
be problematic...

QP3 Mutual Fund data is not dividend adjusted!

There are numerous previous posts related to this issue.

So depending upon how you use MF data as 'economic indicators', it may
or may not be an issue.
