Richie re certs.
It's ALWAYS a good idea to take your certs home if you don't think you will be selling within the next 30 days. It's a game of patience devoid of panic. If you feel in the future that you are ready to sell just get the certs properly endorsed and return them to your brokerage account. I do that all the time. Your bank is suitable for guaranteeing your signature on the back of the cert. Tell your broker to butt out. You bought those certs .. or just call for one large one. They should come to you with your name on the front and be blank as to signatures on the back. DO NOT SIGN IT OFF until the day comes that you return it to your broker for selling purposes. If you want to trade, leave some credits in your account but take out as much as you can. If the broker tells you the cost will be high .. phone any trust company yourself and ask for a quote. The last one I did cost me $13 a certificate. Don't let your broker push you around. A lot of them are scum.
