Hi Bernie, If you decide to let the dividends of those stocks reinvest, then handle them just as we do with mutual fund distributions. In Newport, go to the stock screen in question and open the Maintenance window. There, change the number of shares owned to the new amount after the dividend is reinvested.

Since we're as interested as anyone in total return, dividends should be accounted for either in the Cash Reserve or as reinvested funds to keep our accounting straight.
Best regards, Tom

Hi Bernie-

re: dividends... probably a push which way to go in that you would either add shares or add cash to the AIM account. The advantage to cash is that AIM would provide the timing for purchase instead of letting the dividend date do it for you.
