For some reason this Vanguard Fund is downloaded as 0.07 when is should be 1.00 (always).
Fixing manually isn't a huge deal... but it's annoying. And it also makes me wonder whether the other quotes are being downloaded correctly.

    Hi Chon,
    Reporting the price of Money Market accounts can sometimes be problematic. It has to do with the fact that Yahoo finance reports the 7-day (0.07) yield rather than the NAV.
    Since the NAV is always $1.00, what I do, is remove the ticker symbol for my money market account(s). That way the price updater just skips over it.
