I don't care how you think, as you are not the one having your shares confiscated by Scottrade for Anvirons' beef with DTC.
I don't care anything about a dividend, just my physical stock to be returned to me and any other investor that has it held by Scottrade.
It is totally unamerican.
Investors stock with Scottrade are held by DTC in streetname. DTC has no idea who owns it other than Scottrade.
I have no connection with DTC and only Scottrade has my stock. They were not stopped from doing a custody transfer of my stock to another brokerage as DTC has no authority over Scottrade to order them not to do this.
They just will not buy, sell or trade ANVH for Scottrade while they hold that stock for them.
