what happens if my broker goes bankrupt?

[bsrsharma]

Securities at licensed brokers usually have up to $500K SIPC insurance. Check the statements to see if you are covered. It is always smart to keep your assets divided at multiple brokerages just in case. I don’t know how long SIPC will take to make good on loss.

I’d like to ask Where would you put your cash well above $100k? Stock market is too volatile for certain people. Bonds have a high risk of loosing value if inflation gets on a high gear. Dollar may be bottoming so foreigh currencies are also risky at the moment. Only gold/silver look relative safe. who do you guys think?

Believe it or not, in this type of environment I think it actually makes sense to think about real estate, in addition to gold, oil and holdings in foreign currencies as a hedge against inflation and dollar declines.

But what if you want a tad more liquidity than real estate offers?

Does anyone know if cash or money market funds owned through a brokerage covered by SIPC?
