>>>i can understand closing down an acct with a broker on deathwatch<<< One of the reasons I went with Schwab way back when was that they had a storefront. There was something that you could see and touch - more substance. Dropping a check in the mail to eTrade??? At the end of the day, one will probably get his securities out of eTrade, but it might take a while. If there is a "run on the brokerage" the Feds will shut them down and freeze everything.
