Moving Shares Around

Moving Shares Around This question is to anyone that can help. Our group is presently working to move our shares of INTC stock from the holding company (Computershare) to our broker (BuyandHold), because we believe it's no longer DRiP friendly. But I'm wondering what happens to the cost base when the transfer is complete? Does it move to the market value at which the broker received it? If so, is there a way to make this adjustment in Bivio? This seems to be the case, just like paying someone (a member) out in/with stock. The cost base moves to there value. Thanks in advance Brian, There is no adjustment made when you move shares from one broker to another. Although many full service brokers will keep track of cost basis for you, there is no requirement that they do so. That is your responsibility. For those brokers that do, you have to tell them what the basis and holding period is for shares you transfer in. Hope this helps.
