[GNC] Strange Problem

[Les]

I guess the problem stems from the fact that although I had set the 
stock to get online quotes through AlphaVantage, the stock didn't 
update.  So, as John Ralls stated, the stock is not visible in Price 
Editor without a price. So, following the his instructions, I went to 
Price Editor, selected TSX, Add, and entered yesterday's closing price.  
It is now visible.

I have never encountered this before, as I guess all of my previous 
stocks had updated prices through online quotes.

Thanks to all for the help.

Les
