Switch brokers

switch to scottrade or ameritrade, sharebuilder won't let you trade peferred stocks, and some pinkies.

Yeah, switch. That's what I did. I am with Scottrade now and just waiting on my Sharebuilder stuff to transfer over. I also had no idea that I could not buy this with Sharebuilder until I tried. That was when the stock was at $1.80 and if I could have purchased then I would have 2 to 3 times what I have now.

The reason that I went with Scottrade is because my father recently opened an account and really likes it. He also referred me and we both got 3 free trades. The only thing is that you cannot do an express funded trade like you can with Sharebuilder but the $7 trades are nice.

because you own too much of WamPQ, you will be restricted buying more. you can not own more than 4.4% of 3M . it is court order.

I use E Trade...they let me buy anything.
