is sipc coverage on cash as strong as fdic?
user
for cash, sipc insurance is similar to fdic insurance. your losses are not covered, but you're covered in case of fraud. since your cash is supposed to be in a trust account and not commingled with brokerage's funds, in case of bankruptcy you would still have your cash unless there was fraud.
