lol, if a lot of people want to do it, it can be an ENORMOUS pain. It's actually a fairly complicated process. And I'm sure many people at many brokerages have been having recurrent nightmares ever since the big CMKX cert pull.
And in any case, it's not necessary. The exchange, if it happens, will be done electronically.
check their vault? LMAO you dont understand how this works do you? its in a series of certs in the name of cede & company. the certs are never at the brokerage. Dude come on. tell me you knew that. maybe that information is taught in the UBER MONKEYnar
UMMM ... certainly you knew that broker dealers do not hold Certificates of EIGH but lodge them with Cede and then the broker merely has a book entry for the physical shares. jmo
