I contacted my broker (Schwab) regarding having an IRA account full of TSLA shares, and what would happen should Tesla go private, and I was told Schwab does not allow private equity in its IRA accounts so I would need to sell all the TSLA shares. I promptly told Schwab, bzzz, wrong answer, that means I have to find another broker.
Question: has anyone found ANY broker who will allow TSLAP shares in an IRA post-going-private?I guess I'm also wondering if this is an IRS/IRA rule, or a broker policy.
If a private-equity IRA broker exists, I gotta start planning to move my entire IRA over to that broker.
