Is there any difference when managing dividends and capital gains on the core position? For example if my core position is a money market and it pays monthly does setting “reinvest in security” have a different outcome than “Deposit to Core Account” for the money market core position.

Hey there, @kennyisnotdead. Since your core position is where cash is held after a dividend or capital gain payment, it won’t make a difference in your core account. Either way, the funds are “reinvested” into the core regardless of the setting.🟢
