The double quote - " - is a convention in the English language (perhaps in others as well) to mean "the same as the last."  The double quote there is essentially the FMC simply saying "yeah, you're still at FL380, I just don't feel like displaying that a hundred times."  You'll note, you'll be leaving your current altitude at FL380, and the very next fix has an altitude displayed.  It's simply displaying FL380 once, using " for any subsequent times, and then only displaying another altitude if it is different.

I highly doubt you're doing everything correctly if the plane is not doing what it is supposed to.  Have you rolled the altitude down on the MCP?  Is the aircraft in PROF mode?

 

A picture of the PFD would be very helpful.
