Christmas came early for three funds today, while three others will find themselves desperate for a fresh start in the New Year.

That's right, it's Morningstar's "Three Up, Three Down" column. The article offers fundsters a glimpse into how the mutual fund ratings giant adjusts its analyst ratings.

The three upgraded funds are:

the T. Rowe Price Growth Stock Fund [profile];
the Vanguard Small-Cap Value Index Fund [profile]; and
the BlackRock Small Cap Growth Equity Fund [profile].

Meanwhile, the three losers are:

the Franklin Federal Tax-Free Income Fund [profile];
the Buffalo Mid-Cap Fund [profile]; and
the Pimco Global Multi-Asset Fund [profile].
