Corporate Actions

A ticker with a Net Cost of zero with INF (meaning "infinity") as its % Unrealized Gains/Losses indicates the shares associated with this ticker were derived from a corporate action. This can be as simple as a change of a stock symbol name or as complex as a ticker derived from a forward or reverse split. Company mergers and stock splits are the two most common corporate actions. You will be notified in advance of such actions when possible. Usually corporate actions are detailed in company press releases and you are encouraged to keep an eye on the company news for your held tickers as well.

If a corporate action replaces currently held shares of stock with shares of another stock or stocks, corresponding entries can be found on the Transaction History page. Teams should compare the original cost of the position from Transaction History and compare to Current Value on the Account Holdings page to determine the true gain or loss.
