There's some "capital gains" transactions. Not sure what these are yet but I suspect it's just recording the gain or loss of value of shares of various funds (so it's recording unrealized gain).
My finance knowledge is thoroughly incomplete but I'm hopefully learning slowly. My mother will probably be a useful resource here.
