Down 9.9% Today???

Same here, dualstow.

Vanguard doesn't even have December statements ready for download, yet, which is also unsurprising. Fidelity usually has them the first business day of the new month.

Etrade finally showed my PRPFX dividend and capital gain this morning (Friday, Jan 3).

Well it has now been 6 business days since this large distribution and I still have not seen the money in my account. I just called Vanguard and they informed me that they contacted PRPFX today and were told by PRPFX that it would be an additional 3-5 business days for me to be paid. It sure sounds like PRPFX is affording themselves a nice interest free loan for an excessive amount of time before paying this out. Is it common for a mutual fund to wait up to 10 business days to pay out a distribution to a customer?

Update: I contacted PRPFX directly and they claim that they sent out the distribution to Vanguard on Jan 2nd. So I called Vanguard for the second time and asked them if they had received the funds as of yet and could not get a direct answer but that I should be receiving the distribution in another 3-5 business days. Something sure sounds fishy here!

Ex-dividend date was 12/27/13, payable and reportable on 12/30/13. If they are not there by tomorrow, I would call your broker and inquire. Mine showed up this morning with Monday's date as the trade date.

I just noticed that on my dividend page at Vanguard, the PRPFX distribution is listed under 2014, not 2013. Hmm.

That's what I was expecting. Thank you, MangoMan!

It was all retirement money. Obama has to wait until I retire to take me apart with taxes. My performance has been better since I sold out of PRPFX. I am up 4% YTD thanks in part to GDX and GDXJ. Feels good knowing those fees are history.
