Fidelity was ‘glitchy’ at 0700. Was down at 9:35 (May have been down sooner). I had a sell order that I placed at 0830. It was a market order, small position that I wanted to dump, already red and I didn’t care about a few cents either way. I figured a limit order might not get filled.
The trade did not execute until 1017. Could be a one off. But by my estimation not only did the major brokerages collide with the FED and Treasury to shut down trading, they were also slow in filling orders. It wasn’t a thinly traded stock and should have been filled immediately.
Interestingly enough, SoFi did not go offline. They also refused to participate in the Robinhood/GME trading halt.
Retail investors who think they can ‘get out’ when the real crash comes may want to reconsider. Ditto with the BTC maxis. I’m sure they won’t.
The FED intervened on Thursday. Again on Friday. Today was a new tactic. Instead of delivering listing the PPT they just colluded with the biggest brokerages to make buying or selling impossible. It’s so damn obvious. There should be a Congressional inquiry tomorrow.
Not that it would do any good. Anyway I’m done. The manipulation is simply too aggravating. I’ve closed all of my open positions except 15 miners, two physical trusts (Uranium and Platinum), one dividend play, and 3 very small lottery tickets outside mining.

Cash. ST T bills. Gold. Silver.
What’s ironic is the portfolio is up 1% today.
Cheers.
