Looks like they are standing by their numbers. My interpretation is that Fidelity is saying the old and new screens calculate performance in slightly different ways.

Not saying Fidelity is correct on this. I am more inclined to believe that SeeksQuality correctly identified an error in the calclulation. He is a Math guy after all.

But then again its hard to believe that Fidelity would argue that their math is correct when it wasn't.

Good info, shows what they believe the calculation should be.

Problem is they are treating the two ends asymmetrically, stripping accruals out of one end but not the other. Doesn't help that they fail to clearly distinguish the cash balance and the accrual balance, giving them the same name.

I'll take a closer look when I have the time...
