All my fault. I’m retiring on the 31st. Somehow the word got out.
I was able to login to Schwab & Fidelity
If they are down, I wonder what the source of the outage is, is it from ultra high trading volume or is it from some type of cyber-attack.
No worries, it’s not your money.
You are merely a creditor, inline after all the others.
10¢ on the dollar? Nope, not even that.
Wipe it clean, and the carrion goes to Tier 1 Creditors.
And that ain’t you.
The big boys/elites get their sells in, but the little guys, the web-based investors?
The site is down or whatever. All of them? Maybe it’s hackers? /S
The Great Taking.
I just logged into Fidelity. No problem. Might have been temporary overload due to people nervous about market plunge.

Lots of news articles over the past couple hours, market downturn has lots of people trying to trade, and overloading systems.
The main people still able to trade would be major investors who can get a human broker to pick up the phone.

I hope you’re right.
Took a little bit to get into Schwab but did. Didn’t try any trades, sitting tight with everything except T-Bills, next ones mature Thursday. Current allocation: 72% in T-Bills/cash, 28% stocks, ETFs, MLPs.
Schwab has been online and open for business. If there was any outage, it was brief and I missed it.
Everything worked for me on E-Trade, Schwab, and Vanguard.
UPS is a brokerage now?
You’re doing better than I am, I haven’t been able to log into Fidelity for months now, I keep getting this message:
[628] You do not have access to this site.
If you believe this to be in error or are trying to find an account related to a prior employer, please call (800) 835-5095.
If you are looking to open a new account, please navigate to Fidelity.com or call (800) 343-3548.
I’ve called them multiple times and told them I was a retired software engineer with website development and security work and told them I would come out of retirement to resolve their issue for the right salary. They haven’t offered me a position yet.
you’re embarrassing yourself ...
