The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I noticed that my cost basis post split has all been retained in the parent,BN.New BAM has a cost basis of about 37% of BN.This was a tax free spin off,so my thought was that my original cost basis should be split between the two new entities. Fidelity claims both new figures are accurate. This doesn't track at all. They are looking into it,just curious if this is any e else's experience?
