Question Stock question

I was looking at my stock and was pleasantly surprised to see it went up. My question is this. Our stock and money market account show a lower amount than my gains and losses account which is higher. I plan to call ING and ask about it but thought I'd post here as well.

Any ideas? Does the gains and losses amount show what it would sell at on the market? Or is the amount in my portfolio review (total account value) what it would potentially sell at market? We have no plans to sell because we are long term investors. We're just curious why such a discrepancy shows up.

Oh gosh Sandy,
Wish I had an answer, we don;t look at ours. Last year before market went zonko we had everything in a CD as hubby will retire next year, if he can.

But, I opened your thread as I thought you needed help with soup STOCK! lol
I was already to tell you the fun I have cooking fromwatching the elders and making my fresh stock soups and gravies,

LOL, I guess at 54 I am an old hearted soul.
But, ing should have a consultant to answer all your questions. When we were considering putting the 95% or so in CD"s we talked to ours.
Good luck
di

Thanks Di! LOL I had to laugh when you mentioned soup stock. It was a fluke thing with the stock numbers. Turns out it wasn't updated and was a day behind. Sheesh and to think I was running around yelling "It's going up! It's going up!" NOT.

Did you sell anything this past year?

If not, I believe the gain/loss may be a projection based on market performance.

No, we didn't sell anything. We don't plan to sell for a long time. I hope it's a projection, that would be good. :-)
