investment house

Note: If you own a stock brokerage account that allows you to buy on the margin, the investment house can loan out your shares without you knowing it.

If the stock rose, the investment house got the first 35% or so of the increase.

If the stock fell, as we see with DJT shares, the investment house also makes money because it shorts the stock.
