One security, SPDR Gold Trust (GLD) , behaves improperly in a Sorted Portfolio View

After close of markets here's where GLD in Portfolio View, sorted by "Price Day Change (%)" show up:

The biggest winner of the day.

Then probably 30 seconds or so later I click on Update and here's GLD now:

Lodged in the group of securities - mainly mutual funds and such where final prices show up later - with no "Price Day Change" and "Price Day Change (%) showing.

Some time another Update will move GLD out of that group and back to where it belongs but more frequently it stays within that "no price change" group.

I probably do a price Update 3- 4 times a day and this behavior is pretty consistent.

What would cause a security to not have those numbers calculated even though the price certainly has changed?

I recently had to upgrade to R62.16 (trying to solve a different "downloading" issue) and that change was right around the time I actually bought GLD, but I don't know if the problem actually started then or had happened in my earlier version.

    There is a longstanding issue with updating the Price day change calculation in the Portfolio views. For some reason this mainly affects recently added securities.

    Try forcing a recalculation by setting the As of date back by one day then returning it to the problem date. Does that fix it?

    Thanks for the reply. Now that you mention it I do remember a few Vanilla emails - before Vanilla emails no longer made to my inbox (again) - about this issue, but I never dug into it.

    Looking at the Portfolio View for a previous day does get GLD reported properly.

    Thanks for confirming that this is still an issue @Tom Young

    The last I heard, Quicken was tracking this as issue CTP-346, opened over 5 years ago in July 2019.

    Is this still open, Moderators?
