I tried your code and I got the following error in BNRPortfolio.m:

This error came up on two lines.

The first time the error came up was on the following line:

[_stocks addObject:stock];

The second time the error came up was on the following line:

[_stocks addObject:foreignStock];

The program won’t run as a result.

Below is all of my code for your reference, but I have pretty much copied it exactly from your post:

main.m:

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
#import "BNRPortfolio.h"

int main(int argc, const char * argv[]) {
    @autoreleasepool
    
    {
        BNRPortfolio *financialPortfolio = [[BNRPortfolio alloc] init];
        
        // Generate names for stocks and ticker symbols
        NSArray *names = @[@"Apple", @"Volvo", @"Microsoft", @"Netflix"];
        NSArray *tickerLabels = @[@"ABC", @"DEF", @"GHI", @"JKL"];
        
        for (int i = 0; i < [names count]; i++) {
            BNRStockHolding *newStock = [[BNRStockHolding alloc] init];
            NSString *stockName = [names objectAtIndex:i];
            newStock.companyName = stockName;
            newStock.purchaseSharePrice = 2.30 + i * (arc4random() % 3);
            newStock.currentSharePrice = 4.50 + i * (arc4random() % 2);
            newStock.numberOfShares = 15 + i * (arc4random() % 4);
            newStock.tickerLabel = [tickerLabels objectAtIndex:i];
            
            [financialPortfolio addStock];
        }
        
        // Generate names for foreign stocks and ticker labels
        
        NSArray *fNames = @[@"Izuzu", @"Toyota", @"Toshiba", @"Fujitsu"];
        NSArray *fTickers = @[@"MNO", @"PQR", @"STU", @"VWX"];
        
        for (int i = 0; i < [fNames count]; i++) {
