Investment price keeps getting reset to $1

Question

I have shares of a REIT in my Morgan Stanley brokerage. The ticker is listed as BDQ31, which I don't believe is a valid ticker, yet for some reason, every day when I update my accounts, the value of the stock is set to $1, and I have to go into "Edit Security" and remove the entry for "Price History" for today's date. All previous price history line items are set by transactions downloaded from Morgan Stanley when the REIT was actually purchased (price was about $20/share)

Anyone seen anything similar? I'm trying to figure out why it's setting it to $1 every day and if there's a way to stop it.

Tried that - any update to the security in Quicken doesn't seem to work. However, I tried deleting all the transactions and securities in Quicken and recreating by hand to see if that may work. Will give it a couple of days to find out.

What if you were to change the security symbol to something that is definitely not a security symbol (e.g. ZZZZZZZ or MYREIT).

Yes BDQ31 seems a bad 'un.   But that's what MS lists on your brokerage holdings page?  What's the full name of the REIT?  The ticker you use makes me wonder if it is not a REIT but rather a REIT target date fund…
