WHAT brokerage firms are spic insured?

Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC) insurance covers most brokerage firms that are members of SIPC. This includes well-known firms like Charles Schwab, Fidelity Investments, E*TRADE, and TD Ameritrade. SIPC protects customers against the loss of cash and securities in the event of a brokerage firm failure, but it does not insure against investment losses. Always check with a specific brokerage to confirm their SIPC membership and coverage details.
