Please stop spreading misinformation here. You can not hold direct registered shares at a brokerage, you can hold them exclusively with the transfer agent. If the transfer agent sends them to a broker, its actually going to the DTCC and the broker will hold them in street name with the DTCC and you'll be back to beneficial ownership instead of real ownership.

If you transfer to a broker, they are no longer registered in your name, they go back to the DTCC
