Robinhoods exposure is probably wildly higher. Most of the capital at places like Schwab or Fidelity is probably in fairly safe retirement accounts. Sure, they have active trading accounts and some subset of that group was probably in these trades.

Also, from what I know, Robinhood makes it's money off getting people to trade and selling margin so they've gone out of their way to encourage some of this behavior. I'd be shocked if their subset of traders in these trades wasn't quite a bit larger.

I didn't see any "Vanguard cuts off trading of GME" headlines the last few days but they've went out of their way to sculpt a more buy and hold investor mentality.

Years after I opened the account, I got a call out of the blue from someone I'd never heard of. He said, "I'm your broker at Schwab, and I'm going through your account. I see you've got XXX shares of this stock and YYY shares of that stock, and I'm wondering if perhaps we should move some to ZZZ mutual fund where I get paid a commission." (Well, he didn't say that last part, but it was obvious.)

I took the phone away from my ear and looked at it in confusion before putting it back. "Who are you?"

"I'm your broker and I just wanted to talk about ..."

He was clearly in my account because he knew what my holdings were. It was some dude who worked there. I sent him packing, and then I started getting his "personal Schwab newsletter", which went straight to my junk folder.

I have no idea why they suddenly assigned this guy to me, and I did not welcome his presence. Now I know that some dude that I've never met occasionally looks in my stock account, and I've considered moving away from Schwab as a result.
THAT would bother me A LOT. I'd shut that account down if it were me.

This made me laugh. But also a bad look for RH.

One month from now, GME will likely be worth $20. If you're buying now, you're betting that you can time it right and not lose your ass before then, and people have never been able to time the market.
RH didn’t give a flying **** when the same jackasses were YOLOing their whole portfolio on Tesla calls. This isn’t about risk to the investor.

Anyone have a way to get around the $75 Robinhood account transfer fee?

Sell, transfer money, buy. But don't sell any GME you may have, as there is some chance you won't be able to buy again. Realistically you'll have two accounts on two brokerages for awhile.

This is the beginning of the end of the bull market.

Seen this silly shit too many times before a crash.

I'm betting 20-25% drop very soon.

Investments in financially powerful companies will be just fine.

Chris Sain just said same thing but 10-15% correction. Buying opportunity coming. Get dry powder ready to pounce when it happens.

Most brokers will credit you the fee. At least once

Generally, you can get bonuses for moving your money around.

As long as interest is next to zero the market won't be down long. What are you going to do? Buy a CD for .5% or less?
