Should Fidelity CMA be working now?

CousinBruce

I had one brief week (March 1) where an update magically made my MM accounts in my Fidelity CMA work correctly. Unfortunately, the next week there was another update and they don't work at all anymore (the transactions for FDLXX and FZCXX just don't appear in the transaction register, instead only deductions appear). The result is that I have an absurd negative balance in Quicken that has nothing to do with the actual balance of the CMA. Is this expected to be working or are we still waiting on another fix?

Hello @CousinBruce,

Thank you for reaching out! To help troubleshoot, please provide more information:

• Are FDLXX & FZCXX core funds in your CMA account?
• Are you expecting them to be tracked as holdings or as cash?
• How are they currently reflecting in your Quicken file?

I look forward to your response!

FDLXX and FZCXX: SPAXX is my core/sweep account in the CMA. FDLXX and FZCXX are MM that Fidelity will pull money out of automatically to fund payments. Neither is usable as a sweep account.

I don't care that much how they are tracked, the problem right now is that the "transactions" shows deductions going to them but not coming out, which makes Quicken useless (except for payment reminders). If you wanted to show SPAXX as a cash balance and FZCXX as mutual fund would be fine, as long as money going in and out reflected properly in the cash ledger. If you wanted to show all MM funds as cash, that would be fine with me, too (though that would prevent someone from seeing they have too much money in SPAXX and want to move it to a different fund that pays more interest, like FZCXX).

At present Quicken shows nothing about the FZCXX holding in my account. Doesn't appear in Holdings/Security or anywhere. I just see an absurd negative balance.

Thank you for your reply,

Based on your description, it sounds like the holdings are being treated as cash, but not all the activity is properly reflected in the account.
