Hmmm…

The brokerage has come to terms with the stock split mentioned recently.

But the money transferred between checking and brokerage is still in both places.

Hmmm…

I would get all excited, but there’s the strong possibility that this could get ugly. I envision both companies looking at the other’s accounts and saying “oh, the money is over there” and simultaneously deleting both instances from existence, with no paper trail to speak of.

I can’t wait to find out how it ends. I might do the noble thing and alert somebody to the discrepancy, but I’m sure that would only aggravate the situation and usher in the aforementioned worst-case-scenario.
