Well I'm feeling fortunate for now. I was lucky to be toward the end of the line on this one, and there must be some vocal opponents for them to at least postpone the conversion schedule.
Meanwhile I'm looking for a broker to handle the few OTC stocks that I have on a commission free basis. Anyone have experience with this? I just found this over on Investopedia, so may have to give Fidelity a try. I might end up with 3 brokers by the time this is over.
