Just tried to buy GLDG, got this message from TDA:
Several companies have recently announced that they will recognize ownership or transfer of their shares only by physical certificate instead of the modern electronic book-entry system. One or more other companies are encouraging shareholders to convert their stock to physical certificates, including this company. Where companies convert to physical certificates only, it has become extremely difficult and, in some cases, impossible for brokerage firms like Ameritrade to obtain shares for their clients. Converting to physical delivery also increases the costs associated with transferring ownership of common stock between buyers and sellers.
Just another in a long line of soon to be runners that I can't run with.
