Thanks for that. I might end up doing both.

Re-parenting is simplest and makes the most sense. But in one case, I've
already got shares of the same company at the old and new brokerages. I
used the two-split method there. Both worked fine.

Thanks again!

Probably because it doesn't.

You can transfer the shares in a regular two-split transaction but depending on 
the circumstances it might make more sense to just re-parent the account to the 
new broker.

[GNC] How to record in-kind transfers?

2021-02-05 Thread David Newman
Greetings. How to record in-kind transfers of stock shares between
brokerages?

I've read the "Concept of Lots" document on the wiki multiple times,
especially the "lot transfer" section, but don't understand how this
applies to in-kind transfers of stocks.

Thanks.
