It is free to transfer, and you can sell it as easily as in a brokerage.
For one share, I can see points to doing it, and points for not.
One share is in a way, symbolic, and it would be equally as symbolic to take that share out of the DTCC, and be the true owner of it. A lot depends on what brokerage you are in, too. If it is anybody other than Fidelity, I'd transfer ASAP. A lot of bad brokers are going to get sucked under, and then the share's ownership could well be muddled.
Fidelity has been showing rapid transfers (meaning they actually bought the shares when you ordered them) where a lot of large reputable brokers have apparently been taking the money, and just crediting your account with the purchase that was never made. Now that transfers are ongoing, the stalling has been due to them trying to "locate" your shares to transfer out. i.e., they never bought them.
This ☝🏼 answers my query perfectly! Yeah, one share is symbolic but I’m thinking the same as your other points. I’m gonna do it. About to buy a gob of DWAC too...that’s not so symbolic. I’ll probably leave that at brokerage for now. Thanks Brother 😎👍🏽
Just read-up on Computershare. I only “own” one share GME. Is it worth it to register & transfer it from brokerage?
That is a question only you can answer.
