Nope. No way.

    You may want to check if your local library provides access to the Morningstar Investing Center platform.

    +1 yes, a great idea. I'm pleasantly surprised with the stuff provided by Schwab, too.

    @Crash, are you using M* Portfolio (Legacy or New) ?

    Legacy. I prefer that particular layout.

    Continued access to M* Legacy Portfolio may be tied to valid subscription for M* Portfolio that covers Legacy and New versions.

    Are you referring to M* Portfolio Manager?
    IIRC, I gained access to Portfolio Manager after creating a free account on the M* website years ago.
    Multiple watchlists for various fund categories were created via the tool and are still monitored today.
    The main purpose of these watchlists is to compare trailing returns within fund categories.

    Note: I don't use Portfolio Manager to monitor the value of my current portfolio.

    My understanding is that Watchlist now is a feature within Morningstar Portfolio (Legacy or New) that is a subscription product.

    If you have alternate access to M* Portfolio via Rowe Price, etc, that's fine. But if not, you would lose access if you drop the M* subscription.

    Public Library may provide access to Analysts Reports, but I doubt that M* Portfolio can be accessed from library.

    You're correct - Morningstar Investing Center does not provide access to Portfolio Manager via the library.
