Vanguard Molasses

[Peds]

well today looks fun.
might move up my monthly buy date (supposed to be end of next week).

however, vanguard website is....just....dragging. first time ive really ever noticed a problem.

anyone having similar issues with fidelity, etrade, etc?

Yes. Site about not usable this morning for me.

"0 Total Assets"

If that doesn't give you a little spark of adrenaline....

If I logged into vanguard and saw that it would literally (well, hopefully not literally) scare the crap out of me.

I'm unable to buy/sell anything right now.

You shouldn't have shorted GME...

I was able to make my Roth trades this morning. Did not show "zero assets", which would literally scare the crap out of me.

This is what index investing gets you...

The account summary page is accurate this morning but the balances and holdings is way off. Everything is loading slow. Whats up

Probably all the trading that is messing their system up.

its what i feel right now haha.

yea this might be the one thing that makes me move money away. i dont care about the interface (ive known it for 2 decades almost), i dont care about customer service (never had to call), but if the site doesnt work during heavy traffic which has now occurred on a few instances, then why should my money be there?

i guess ill log on again an hour before close vs my usual 5 mins to give me time to decide....

This is so you dont trade quickly when the market crashes.

I’ve been wiped out too. Back to work!

Peds, that is the same thing my account showed this am. I know that it is more of a thought experiment of one of the big financial houses going down, but.... As it turns out, I have pretty equal distribution through different firms and I kinda like it.

Anyway, another vote for the simplicity of mutual funds over ETFs so you don't have to worry about spreads...or molasses speeds.

Vanguard app doesn't work for me. I can't log in to see a $0 balance.

Fidelity works fine.
