Stocks syncing in iCloud

I have iPhoneX and iPhoneXR, both running IOS 14, both use the same Apple ID, and both have Stocks enabled under iCloud.

When I add a stock to the Stocks App watchlist on one phone, that stocks shows up on the watchlist of the other phone. However, when I delete a stock on one phone, it does not get deleted on the other phone. Is this how iCLoud Stocks syncing supposed to work, or is it supposed to sync both adding and deleting items to the watchlist?

thanks.

It is supposed to be deleted across all of your devices you are signed in to. On the problematic device, try briefly switching Stocks off/on under Settings > Name > iCloud > Stocks.

Thanks again...I was able to force the sync by adding and immediately deleting a random stock to the watchlist of the “To” phone, i.e the phone that had not synced up with the "From" phone where the changes were made.
