If you were to sell a fund in a portfolio and reinvest in a new fund within the same portfolio. Why does the % gain for the portfolio go down as if the portfolio hadn't seen the gains that it already had? Currently, in fund manager I treat the transaction just like it happens.. ie sell one position, buy another from the sold position cash value. Thanks! Dave
