There was a shite ton of volume and traffic and the usuals couldn’t handle it. It’s not the first and won’t be the last time those places go down, but it’s not some evil trick.

Almost every platform went down at almost the exact same time for 30 minutes - Etrade, Fidelity, Schwab etc? Unless the actual exchanges claim they went down that seems extremely unlikely.

I work in IT and I'm pretty experienced with web traffic and it taking sites down. The likelihood of them all going down at once being a coincidence is almost 0.

All the commission free sites going down as GME skyrockets and the DJIA falls 600 points in the first half hour is just your typical day in March 2020.

You get what you pay for on those platforms.
