    I’d pick prohibited transaction. I live in AU. NYSE won’t let me trade there.

    Either that or “hate” - all redditors can get involved, but not you because you are not from the US. Sounds like communism.

      You can trade on the New York Stock Exchange in Australia. I trade foreign stock exchanges all the time.

        It’s a bit more complicated… you trade through a broker with trading rights on that exchange. Unless you are a power user on a bloomberg terminal.

        Reddit could direct sell shares to a US resident, I’m pretty sure, as a first party sale.

          Why would you want to do that. Unless you are trading massive amounts of money, it’s more practical to just use an online broker.
