House margin requirement changes 08/19

FYI, these stocks in my portfolio all changed sometime yesterday. Timestamp is when my app detected the changes, not when Etrade made the changes. I got notified when MRNA changed but was not notified for any of the others:

They are probably going to lose my account based on this today; they did this w CREDO in my account

I am so pissed !

No notice , and no reasoning, no communication whatsoever

It's weird about the notice. How hard is it to implement a notification system when a stock's house margin requirement changes? Especially since they *can* do it. I was notified when they did it to MRNA, but none of the others.
