Invisible holdings

[Mary Kennedy]

I have the weirdest problem in the universe. I have a small IRA with typically just one holding at a time. Last fall I sold the one mutual fund in it and got about $7000 in cash. A few weeks ago I bought another mutual fund using that cash. For some reason, FM registered that the cash was gone, but didn't register the purchase.

Today I tried to correct this by manually entering the purchase. When I did that, the holding showed up in my report as worth $14000, which made me think the original purchase must have been imported after all, but was invisible for some reason. So I deleted my manual entry.

Now, my report lists $7000 in cash, but a total portfolio value $14,000. Yet when I review the transaction list, I still don't see that original purchase listed.

BTW I also tried reconciling and that didn't change anything.

Hi Mary Kennedy,

Try turning on "View / Hidden Investments/Portfolios" and see if that clarifies things. If so, you might want to watch this tutorial on hidden investments.
