How to change from your broker to Fidelity:
Setting up an account with Fidelity is very basic. The key is after you fill in your information, it will ask you how you want to fund your account. Select “transfer from another brokerage”. You will often have all your shares in your Fidelity account the very next day. Whyyy wait weeks and be stressed out with TDA/Schwab and other brokers.
Also, using a broker versus Computershare direct buys gives you full control of your purchase price and don’t ever have or lose fractionals when you convert from plan to book. (https://www.drsgme.org/terminating-from-directstock)

Totally depends on the number of shares they report to the DTCC. Fidelity, being the most popular ape brokerage, will likely turn off the ability to DRS well before the peak of the MOASS. Past their public ledger, any additional DRS would require Fidelity to buy at open market (hint: they’re not going to do that just so you can keep DRSing)
Hell, even just a DRS value higher than expected on the 6th could break the math in our favor.
