SA recognizes money market mutual fund symbols, but never shows NAV in portfolio to calculate the portfolio value

I agree. I have several CEF funds that do not show the NAV. They show the AUM but not the NAV. Supposedly the NAV can be calculated by dividing the AUM by the total number of units of the mutual funds. But they do not seem to show the total number of units in the fund either. Regardless, they should show the NAV directly as do other platforms. The NAV is important for CEF investors because you want the price to be lower than the NAV so that you can buy the CEF at a discount. Seeking Alpha should follow in accord with other platforms to show the NAV in the quick summary stats. They also should show a quick summary measure of the total expense ratio - as do other platforms.
