Looking for brokerages/fund families that reinvest ETF dividends free.

Have Fidelity now and was wondering if there was a list around or if it's
even worth it ie; should I just reinvest them myself every year and pay? I
like the ETF being able to put in a sell order to get out say if it goes
down 5% or whatever.

Fidelity doesn't reinvest ETF dividends for free? I know it does for
stocks, and I thought ETFs were equivalent to stocks as far as the
brokerage is concerned.

Maybe your right, I just saw dividends being put in my cash account, I'll
check into it.

Fidelity told me on the phone this past month that it reinvests ETF
dividends for free, for the overwhelming greater part.

Yeah, the default is to receive dividends. You have to tell Fidelity
which ones to reinvest.
