Re: Td Ameritrade
Zake, I find that a "go figure" moment, as well. I had a situation recently (past couple months, anyway) that I didn't think much about, but after reading your post, it makes me wonder.
The brokerage I use put a comment on my online account a few times the past couple months that I had a couple stocks that were a bit heavy in percentage to portfolio and that I could talk to someone for suggestions on to spread the risk out a little better. At first, I thought.....isn't that nice of them to warn me like that (and don't think I don't appreciate it) but coupled with your situation, could there be something more to that? PLEASE NOTE......I am NOT accusing anybody of anything. But I have a hypothetical question. Do brokers do this often to stimulate sales/purchases for clients to accumulate shares, cover short positions, etc???
