<<If Schwab raises the requirements and you have QCOM stock, with 50% of the purchase price loaned to you, you have to come up with the other 50% fairly quickly so your Q stock is entirely paid for. >>

At last check, QCOM was not on the list at Ameritrade, Waterhouse, or Brown. I know at least Ameritrade has a list for 40%, 50%, 75%, and 100%.

Once QCOM splits, there should technically be no reason to take if off margin...then again, look at CMRC...

That would really throw a monkey wrench into things for me. If all of a sudden through no fault of my own I had to sell off... Is it cold in here? I think I feel an arctic breeze. Brrr.
