So... that percentage next to the stock price represents the change in value since it opened? Mine currently says +0.99 (2.61%) but the stock opened at $42 and the current price is $39. I would think the number should be a negative value/percentage.

It's based on the $38 pricing, not the opening.
Why is that?
because "in theory" that's where it closed yesterday.
