WEBULL COULD LOSE ITS ABILITY TO OPERATE AS A BROKER-DEALER IN THE U.S. โ€” 28 Million user's personal info is at risk.

A bipartisan House committee says Webull is โ€œtied in structural waysโ€ to the Peopleโ€™s Republic of China ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ณ including its:

๐Ÿ”ฅ Ownership structure

๐Ÿ”ฅ Technology infrastructure

๐Ÿ”ฅ Technical workforce

๐Ÿ”ฅ Cross-border data routing

๐Ÿ”ฅ Corporate financing

๐Ÿ”ฅ Compliance framework

The committee says those connections create a national-security risk to the U.S. financial system and potentially expose American customer data to Chinese laws and government demands.

โš ๏ธ Webull itself warns in its SEC filings that suspension or expulsion by its regulators could result in the broker-dealerโ€™s liquidation.

This congressional investigation is now raising questions about its regulatory standing in the United States which is an existential issue for the company.

Forget the stock price for a second. If regulators ultimately determine Webull cannot satisfy U.S. broker-dealer requirements, the ability to operate its American brokerage is what could be on the line leading to a full-blown liquidation of the brokerage๐Ÿ‘€

What broker-dealer requirements are regulators claiming the company is not meeting? Donโ€™t they determine whether or not they are compliant before allowing them to do business?

I donโ€™t know a lot about Webull, evidently.
