OT Log In Issues at brokerage

I have accounts with Fidelity and Schwab, have not been able to log in to either account, anybody else having trouble ?
Schwab finally posted message that they are having technical issues, but Fido has not posted that message.

I know the markets are down 3-4% or so, so they might be getting overwhelmed with traffic.

Vanguard as well. To be expected on a day like this unfortunately.

Just tried both since I’m a dual customer. No problem with Fidelity, but Schwab is hosed. As you suggest, I’m also guessing the wild point drops indicate mucho sell-offs and therefore log-ins to a considerable number of accounts.

Same situation for me.

Just logged into Fidelity no issues. Attempted Schwab but got the time out circle of death.

IF market is tanking I’ll be looking to back up the truck and load up.

No problem with Merrill. I had been underwhelmed by Stryker lately, but didn’t want to pay tax on the gains. Fortunately, my MSFT, which I sold in the IRA and rebought in the cash account last month, and Stride, had just enough loss, to offset the gain on a bit of the Stryker.

Holding the oils in the IRA. Sometimes, magical things happen to juice oil prices just before Labor Day, which is why I reopened the positions a couple weeks ago.

No problems here with Fidelity or Schwab, but unrelated, had to restart my router this morning.

No problems with Schwab. Logged in prior to the market opening and have stayed logged in (sometimes Schwab has disconnected me when my computer has been idle for some time)

I couldn’t get on Schwab with the App but was able to with my computer browser.

Vangard was a no-go this am (resolved)
Schwab app was hosed, but the main website was perfect. No issues.

Rolling with the punches, I guess…

I saw the action and was able to place some buys in premarket, expecting to have trouble executing during market open.

I didn’t bother to look at my brokerage account. I knew I did not want to trade. Monday was likely going to be worse than Friday.
