: I have a stock that split 2 for 1. I started with 50 shares and now have 100. I sold 55 shares of the stock. When I go to the investment transaction screen only the initial shares owned are reflected and the 55 shares sold, leaving a negative number of shares owned. How do I update the stock to show the additional shares received in the stock split so my remaining 45 shares will be accurately reported?

Hi Brian,

You'll want to record the split for your investment. Just right click
on the investment's graph and choose "Split..." from the popup menu. You
can also use the "Edit/All Data..." dialog, by selecting the "Splits"
data type, and then pressing the "New..." button.

Thanks,
Mark
