  1. Before MF Global, I would have been not at all worried about any of them. Now I can see why you’d want to be extra careful after MF Global apparently intermingled and “lost” segregated client accounts.

    Basic info about SIPC protection for accounts is here: http://www.sipc.org/

    I use only major brokerages — Fidelity, Vanguard, Interactive Brokers, Ameritrade — and I’m not at all worried about my accounts at any of those firms.
