Hi - IB displays this message when I check my statements - perhaps the fix
they mention will take care of your problem....
Steve
Warning: Some of the cost basis calculations displayed on your 2007 annual
statement are incorrect and a new annual statement will be generated for US
customers by 03/10/2008 and for non-US customers by 03/28/2008. The MTM &
FIFO P/L calculations displayed are correct even for those transactions with
an incorrect cost basis.
