100%. If they are not in your name your broker can and do lend them (to short against us) also more importantly they can and will sell them whenever they want for any price. Then claim it was for your own safety due to it being a volatile stock. If it's not in your name (DRS'd) then you do not own it.
Just checked, and it'll cost me about 3 times the worth of the 4 stocks I have. Not exactly a sound investment when I'm not looking to get more.
