Default Re: How to identify which stock had highest % gain/loss in 06?

The problem with this method is that is will take number of shares into
account.
So, if you simply want to see the highest price change for a single share of
each, you could create a new "watch" account with these investments.
But, it would require more work: i.e. entering a Buy of 1 share at the
12/31/05 price for each investment.
So, pulling the data into Excel and manipulating it there might be easier.

Or alternatively look up the info on the MSN Money website, for example you
could compare up to three symbols using the Research Wizard:

In the Money Portfolio, click
ChangePortfolioView-> CustomizeCurrentView-> PortfolioColumns

Select the TotalReturn-OneYear, and click Add.
When done, do Save or SaveAs.

You can also reorder and resize columns by dragging the column
headings while viewing a portfolio.

Sort by that column by clicking the column heading. You can position
a column by dragging it.

Alternatively, use the TotalReturn-YearToDate column. It will show
N/A now before the markets open, but if you change the AsOf date to
31 December 1006, it will show the return for 2006.

You can print the portfolio.
