<Do you have any idea what % of people or their stock held is on margin these days..> Not any more, I used to follow it until the market took off in June. I don't even know if what I heard is true. Anyway, one would have 3 trading days to make up the margin either by selling stock or depositing stock or cash. Used to be 5 days. That changed to T3 about a year or so back when settlement was moved to T(rade) date Plus 3. Perhaps it was 2 years, 3, I don't recall exactly. Still flat.
