Art, Are you using GnuCash V3.9 If you are please either revert to 3.8 or upgrade to the newly released 3.10 version which reverts changes in 3.9 if the following is causing your problem.
The problem I encountered in 3.9 was that the starting balance did not include reconciled transactions which had a reconciliation date in advance of today. My problem was caused by a finger problem on my part in entering the statement end date as 31/12/20 instead of 31/12/2018 on a recent reconciliation and GnuCash interprets this as 31/12/2020 and sets the reconciliation dates in advance of TODAY as a consequence. Chris Lam's changes in V3.9 excluded transactions with a reconciliation date in advance of one of [TODAY, the end date of the current statment, or the end date of the previous statement]( not sure which) from the calculation of the Starting Balance for the reconciliation for the current reconciliation. If you run a reconciliation report that covers the previous period it will show the date recorded as the reconciliation date for each affected split, which should have been the end date of the statement you reconciled against. If you don't have advance reconciliation dates. yours may be a separate problem specifically associated with the stock accounts.
