Security detail of bond fund shows the Cost Basis rather than the Market Value?

imnobodywhoareyou

If I pull up the security detail view for a bond fund that I own, and select market value from the pull-down menu, it shows me the cost basis over time, not the market value. And in the My Holdings box in the upper left, it shows a value that is close to the cost basis (but not exactly the same) next to the Market Value label. Another number is shown next to the Cost Basis label, that I don't believe is correct (and doesn't match what's shown on the investment summary page. What is going on here?

Which bond fund is it (the ticker would be helpful)?

On the Security Detail for that fund, click on More and then on Edit Price History. Does it show the daily historical prices?

Are the dividends you receive from this fund being reinvested? If so, that will impact your cost basis.

Would it be possible to take screenshot of what you are seeing in Security Details and then post it here? To do this you can try Print Screen or Snip It and then save it as a file. Copy the file (Cntrl+C) and paste it (Cntrl+V) in your reply post. Or you can click on the paper clip at the lower left of the "Leave a Comment" field, maneuver to where the picture file was save and select it there.
