I have subscribed to the Morningstar Premium Service for over 10 years. Overall I was happy with the information available on the old site.
Recently Morningstar have changed the Australian web site and moved the site onto the same platform as the rest of the world. The new site has more graphics but has a lot less information than the old site. Overall I prefer the old site.
It would be good to hear from the Strawman members who use Morningstar what they think?
Is anyone using the site called Tikr and how do you find it ?

I've also been using Premium for the past 3 or so months. I also subscribed because of the included Sharesight Investor licence (and since I used a special offer to get Premium for $365 for the first year - the actual cost above Sharesight was very minimal). Note you don't have to create a new sharesight account or anything - it uplifts your existing sharesight account to Investor level (even during the 4 week trial) - in fact if you do decide to subscribe - get the 4 week trial anyway because your paid subscription starts at the end of your trial (it did for me anyway)
Like others I do like their stock analysis writeups and appreciate the Sharesight integration and the ability to use their Portfolio X-Ray tooling over that (and they finally recently released the support for international stocks, ETF's, etc in X-Ray so now I can get a pretty much total portfolio lookthrough (and I have multiple local and international ETF's and individual shares as well as some managed funds and I get a lookthrough view across the lot - e.g. if I owned some stock directly and in multiple different ETF's and managed funds it tells me the percentage holding in each (overlap) as well as a total across everthing; plus asset allocation, sectors, regions, styles, etc across your whole portfolio)
A very small negative is that they don't support CHI-X listed holdings in X-Ray (nor PMGOLD for some reason)
Other than that their daily emails and regular articles are also worthwhile, they also have a podcast (you don't need to be a premium member for these) and also a twice weekly webcast (which you do if you want to attend live - but they are also posted to their public youtube channel a week or two afterwards) - both of them predominantly contain material which is fairly basic and common sense
I've been using their premium service for the last 6 months and have no complaints. Australian Coverage is very much focused on AX300 with a heavy tilt on large caps. I particularly like their international share and ETF coverage. the most impressive part of this service is its integration with sharesight as it provides a great overview of stock allocation, concentration, portfolio performance and stock overlap (if you have multiple ETF's).
