$PEW tldr if you're buying shares with anything except post tax cash (that includes margin or pre tax) your brokerages are getting a 'free ride' on daily basis of almost 1-3% counterfeiting either your position or shares they are 'naked' but delta hedged then using it to cover their constant holes in gamma hedging that Trump is blowing open with maverick moves. In effect this creates a 'carrying cost' on your positions that is amplified by the inverse % of your portfolio available 'to settlement' that you could use to add to the position. Obviously if you're tiny $ accounts tiny $ positions you don't experience this effects except via whale wash ie big whales entering/exiting/shorting/arbing... always for example this is down almost entirely from 5.35 because my brokerage is STILL trying to cover my position for less or at what they completed the transaction at. Three guesses as to who and why - hint they despise the republicans and didn't earn their money
