mbkelly75 - Why can't dividend reinvesting ever raise your cost basis? As an example, if I buy 100 shares of a $25 stock which then rises to $30 before the first dividend is reinvested, those new shares will have a $30 basis bringing the entire group slightly higher, won't they? Or am I missing something?
