Yes, dividends are taxable even if reinvested. What fund(s) is your HSA invested in?

Right now its all VITSX but I now think I may have rebalanced my portfolio in 2022.. So I may have some realized gains or losses then? Optum bank doesnt provide me any tax docs besides the federally mandated one..

If you rebalanced you almost definitely realized something. No HSA admins provide tax docs for CA/NJ residents, you need to track everything on your own. That's why you should either invest simply (ie. pick one fund and stick with it, no rebalancing) or tax-efficiently (tax-free investments or funds with minimal dividends/distributions).

You have to dig in and look at the individual transactions. I'm not familiar with the Optum interface but I'd be surprised if your balance just spontaneously increases one day without any activity details.
