Out of curiosity, has anyone done a deep dive into Computershare? A quick look at their website shows two board members used to work for Rothschild companies. A couple others throw up some potential red flags as well. I know that doesn't automatically rule them out as a company, but I'd be interested in knowing if anyone has managed to dig up any info on them. So far, my internet searches haven't been super fruitful.
Let us know if you find anything interesting. It’s always important for us to do counter DD to check every angle. Just like everyone thought Fidelity was safe and trustworthy. Look how that turned out…
With that being said, I don’t think there is anything fishy with ComputerShare themselves. They are simply the transfer agent. We hold our shares directly with GameStop, ComputerShare just facilitates it.
However, I do think people will have a little more trouble selling than the community has let everyone to believe. But at the end of the day, the shorts need us to sell our shares. If people can’t sell that just means the price will go higher and higher because there are fewer offers.
I just think that during a high volatility short squeeze there will be delays with order execution and potential issues accessing accounts through their website if suddenly hundreds of thousands or millions of people are trying to log on at once and execute orders. They certainly have never experienced that kind of high volume traffic before. But I also think they are doing their best to prepare for it.
Bit of a late reply, but the best I can come up with is some potentially problematic connections. Between their global management team and their board of directors: potentially problematic connections include: Rothschild, Deutsche bank, Ernst and Young, Arthur Anderson, Bank of New York, and Goldman Sachs.
Now, I've done some pretty extensive digging and I haven't found anything outside of the above connections. If indeed Computershare and it's people are the enemy, they're much better at hiding it than the politicians and their ilk.

I don't know but if executives at Gamestop hold their shares in ComputerShare, I feel I can trust them to hold my shares.
