Yep, and also know that shares you think are in your name in all the brokers (TD Ameritrade, Fidelity, Vanguard, etc.) are actually held by the brokers for you in your "Street Name".
Ultimately, if the broker goes bankrupt - basically the SIPC (sort of like the FDIC) will only insure your holdings up to $500,000. And, that's all you'd get even if you had millions of dollars in stock holdings.
Here's this info straight from SIPC's website:

... and consider buying one share of anything that's cheap and leaving that in the broker when you transfer the GME to CS. The reason I suggest this is that many brokers charge a $75 transfer fee, however waive it if you keep at least one share - of anything - with the broker.
Excellent post!

Greetings Mr. Newbie (with 4 posts, all negative on GME). You (and all the "real" Pedes) might want to learn more about GameStop. They're a long way from being a "failing brick and mortar store". Here's a decent place to start:

Greetings Mr. Newbie (with exactly 3 posts - all negative on GME. You (and the other "real" Pedes might want to learn a bit more about GameStop. Yes, the market is crashing, but it seems like GME will rise up and become a "safe haven" of sorts.

Smart Pede!
I heard Schwab has been dragging their feet with DRS requests. Do you have a Fidelity account as well? If you do, you could request a transfer from Schwab-to-Fidelity (initiated from Fidelity's website). By law, brokers have 3 days to transfer to another broker. It's Tuesday May 24th now. If you did this this evening, the shares would probably hit Fidelity on Tuesday May 31st (as the Market is only open a half day this Friday, and closed on Monday which is Memorial Day). Honestly, I don't think there is enough time to get them to CS before the vote.
... and, if you pedes haven't done so already, please check out SuperStonk (a subreddit on Reddit). I believe (strongly) that GameStop is part of THE PLAN - and everything seems to be coming together at the same time.
I'm at 645 safely tucked away at ComputerShare, and one share at Fidelity which I will sell first when it hits an international phone number price. I believe that there will be greater benefit, ultimately, by holding on (not selling) your shares in ComputerShare. - Also, do what the wealthy do... Take a low interest loan (for millions) on your holdings in CS... and you'll receive the money yet pay no taxes. Yes, you'll be paying back (idk) 4%(?) however you should be able to make more than that back with intelligent investments. *** ... and, please know that I'm just a dumb ape who plays with bananas and eats crayons... so therefore am absolutely not a financial advisor.

... also what GameStop (GME) is about to do to the corrupt financial markets. The timing of all of these events seems to be more than mere coincidence.
Sorry, the author's writing style is (to me, at least) difficult to read. However, the information he brings forth goes deep, and is very revealing. I believe everyone should read through this - and share with friends and family.
We really are living in the (evil) Matrix.
Here's PART 2:
Disney doesn't own Disney. Bank of America doesn't own Bank of America. (Those are just a couple examples of MANY).
Every company owns the VOTING STOCK of every other company - they are all the same company. It's one giant ass mega corp, and "IT" has its evil hands in basically everything... manipulating the stock market, putting "inside plants" in companies and purposely running them to the ground (Sears, Toys R Us, Blockbuster, GameStop, Bed Bath and Beyond, etc.).
The Cabal is in on it, and many foreign countries own large stake in many of our biggest companies.
Maybe consider transferring your GME over to Fidelity. Give them a few days once there to settle. Then call Fidelity and request a DRS transfer to ComputerShare. I don't believe you need to already have an account set up at CS.
There, your shares will be in YOUR NAME.
Whatever you decide, please get the heck out of Robbin' Da Hood. They've already shown who they are, and aren't to be trusted.
640 safely DRS'd... I'll be sending more over tomorrow.

No, I don't work for them. :)
The list above is only partial, and GS is adding more and more all of the time. Amazon started as a bookstore. Keep an eye on GameStop, and please consider supporting them instead of Amazon.
You might be surprised what they offer now, and what they'll be expanding into in the future.

Often times you'll receive your order very fast (even Same Day), and the prices are often lower than other online competitors.
Yes, and GameStop has partnered with Loopring (LRC) and ImmutableX (IMX).
The "financial" Mainstream Media is, or course, continuing to discredit GS as much as they can... calling it a "meme stock". A failing brick and mortar company.
I believe that GME is part of the "Plan".
BUY either through Fidelity going through IEX, wait a couple days for it to settle, and then call and request a DRS Transfer to ComputerShare (where the stocks will now be in YOUR NAME) - OR - purchase directly through ComputerShare.
A good forum for all things GME: https://old.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/
BUY, DRS, HODL - and shop at GameStop.

Right here. 99.8% safely tucked away (in MY NAME) at ComputerShare - and one left at FUDelity to sell when the stock price has reached what looks like an international phone number - and then only on the way back down.
