If I own IBKR puts in my IBKR account, are these covered by SIPC insurance up to $500k ?

why do we allways assume its bad news. What cant it be happy news?

M & A?

I've always felt IBKR was a great buy by a major financial firm who could invest in revamping their technology and improving their horrendous/non-existent customer service

By 50/50 do you mean 50% chance its bad news and 50% chance the stock will reopen lower?
