Wow... sounds like RH has to GM draw down credit from its credit lines. While normal to use credit this makes me think they were at risk of solvency or liquidity / capital requirements and that is the real reason for the hold on transactions.

It tells me they potentially over lent shares or struggled keeping up. This doesn’t shock me after all of the crashes they have had in 2020.

A key platform losing liquidity would have been a massive disrupter here.

RH is a SIPC member so you have $500k protection and $250k can be cash. Also if you have the RH card to earn interest on your account money, the cash in your RH account is swept among multiple banks and you have FDIC protection for each bank.
