I have transferred 60% so far. I think I am doing another 20%.
If I was not with Fidelity, I would transfer all of it.
Selling out of CS is just as easy and quick as a broker - but buying shares does take about 5 days, as they do it in batches, and you are REALLY GETTING actual shares when you purchase direct, not just an IOU.
We each have to make decisions that make us feel comfortable for our individual situations. Do what seems right for you, always... that way, even if you are wrong, it was your decision, and it is easier to live with.

I would advise anyone interested to read this link. It is the complete guide to Computershare: (It even has subsections for our European Friends!)

That is a question only you can answer.
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 is VERY plausible. I think you are onto something. Trump will be the hero of Reddit Stock Crowd if you're right - which brings more unity. It sounds right!
I think we are CLOSE to the Entire Storm.
It sure looks like we had 11.3 marker today. (see posts elsewhere at GA)
My favorite Q drop for today is this one:

BOOMS EN_ROUTE TOMORROW.
This is not a drill.
Q
No. I had opened a CS account first, too - but it was unnecessary. Fidelity sends it to CS with your social security number, and everything is matched that way.
I have made multiple transfers now to CS, never gave my account number out to anyone at the brokerage
No shame ever in asking, the shame is in NOT asking! :)
I am not sure what your question is, though... I will cover some, if I miss what you wanted, let me know, happy to tell you anything I can.
I am talking about the Stock Market, specifically the big Trump News today, Trump Media merging with a company called "DWAC".
I believe the acronym DWAC is intentional, because as stated in the OP, it also means a deposit or withdrawal at custodian.
The custodian in the stock market for most all shares is the DTCC - the Depository Trust & Clearing Corp. In short - it has been exposed recently they are very crooked. VERY. (They were co-founded by Bernie Madoff, so no wonder).
Anyway, the DTCC acts as "holder" of actual shares of stock as brokers buy and sell upon orders from their customers. The shares don't physically move around, they sit at the DTCC, and we as retail investors are just credited with them in our accounts.
The other way to own stock, is to buy directly from the company you want to own, through their "Transfer Agent". When you do this, you are the registered owner of the shares in your name, as opposed to the "beneficial owner" of shares that actually belong to the DTCC or your broker.
Now, if you have shares at your broker, and you would rather they be specifically registered IN YOUR NAME, you can transfer them to the Transfer Agent for direct registration. For GME (and maaannny other large corporations) the Transfer Agent is a company called Computershare.
On Reddit, in the popular stock iinvesting forums there, there has been a long conversation taking place, exposing the crookedness of the stock market. Hedge Funds, Market Makers, Politicians, Banks, etc., (A Cabal of Wealthy International Companies) has been exposed as conducting a huge, well, basically a huge criminal syndicate ripping us off for decades. More info can be found on Reddit on this.
The move on these stock forums for GME has been to leave the crooked DTCC and transfer the shares to Computershare for direct registration. Super simply put: It is understood that every share the DTCC loses in it's holdings, is one less share the crooks can use to continue suppressing the natural price of GME.
I believe the short squeeze of GME is designed to clean out and liquidate a lot of bad actors on Wall Street, and expose the rotten system that is riddled with fraud. When it soars, a LOT of money is coming to the shareholders of the stock - and to be a directly registered shareholder with the shares in YOUR name, is the best chance to see you get your fair share, and don't get fleeced.
SO... Todays price action of Digital World Acquisition Corp - "DWAC", I believe was meant to draw attention to the investment term DWAC, which means, essentially, transfer your shares to Computershare. For Anons, the fact that the CUSIP number (basically a stock's SSN) adds up to the letter 17, and has a Q in the middle of it is just icing on the cake. It is an Easter egg to find, and know you are on the right path.

If that explanation didn't cover your question, let me know. :)
I think it is all of the above.
The user base of GME people on reddit are mostly liberals it seems like. I hope they don't redistribute wealth to those retards on there. They are the most immature group of people I've ever seen, and the majority hate Trump.
What you say is fairly accurate, but certainly not the whole picture. Reddit is absolutely AWASH with shills and bots, mods there say publicly, in the tens of thousands. I also see a lot of moderate conversations in the stock forums of Superstonk, GMEJungle, and GME.
As for them being liberal retards - yes, that may well be - but WE NEED THEM TO WAKE UP for the good of our country. They are not the majority, but there is a lot of them. They are victims of the Cabal, just as we are. WWG1WGA, right? As Q said repeatedly, Unity is Strength, and Divided We Are Weak. They seek to divide, we seek to unite.
It is looking to me like before this is all over, the liberals will see the light, most of them anyway - Q said 4-6% will not. I trust this plan, I trust Q, I trust Trump.
"The Best Is Yet To Come!" Q
I am also with Fidelity. It took me 3 minutes today (my 3rd transfer), lol. Posts in a couple days.
Call their 1-800 number (800-544-5555)
You will have to put in your identifying info, and then say "Representative" to get a live agent. Once on with them, just say: "I'd like to transfer "X" number of my GME shares to Computershare, for direct registration." Then, they say they can do that for you, and say is there anything else they can help with.
It is that simple. 👍
