It has to be unless there is a rumor going around about a takeover.
Thoughts?

Some investors and analysts have speculated Schwab could potentially
be a future bidder for the brokerage operations of E*Trade Financial
Corp.

What rumor, a new one or are you talking about the rumors that have
been around for months now. I believe that a take over will not come
until a new CEO is in place.

That's what I was saying yesterday - it looks like (looked like) the
selling was the start of some covering.  But remember, there's not the
same level of short interest as there was prior (maybe it increased
after the Q3 but I doubt it - at least not by much).

The short interest did increase Capn right before earnings.

I don't think it's SCHW .... I just don't think they are as aggressive
as AMTD.  It would be a real shock.

Do you think they would sell if the price was right?  Also any guesses
on the price per share?

I believe if ETFC sold it would have to be a great deal for them
because they know the value of their market share is huge.
I think the pps would be around 3.00

I hear ya - Etrade did get caught up in the mortgage crisis and that
hurt them - but I think they are well on their way to recovery - I
strongly believe this stock has been highly manipulated by the high
short interest

I know hilshy - just saying I'm not sure if it increased any further

Subject: Re: What do you guys think? A short squueze?
blake - they're not going BK, so, breaking up the bank and brokerage
really isn't an option anymore.  The extension of UI benefits and the
first homeowner buyer credit is actually pretty key b/c it means that
ETFC's mortgage-related assets will continue to improve.  In other
words, the buyer has to go for the whole ball of wax and that should
make SCHW and AMTD very nervous b/c I don't think they can afford the
whole thing "now" (maybe at the end of next year).  But someone larger
could.  The big brokers/bank holding companies want to "be your
friend" - they want all your business. We already know they make money
off of loaning you money (via credit cards, home loans, school loans,
business loans, etc.).  However, the lending/credit has not loosened
up enough yet b/c of the economy .... Sooooooo, there is a very strong
chance a large bank will take over that 15% self-directed brokerage
market share before AMTD and SCHW can blink an eye - ETFCs core makes
money - people are trading, so a big bank could quickly swoop in.
Just me - I see more upside to the pps b/c of this thought.

I think this not a short squeeze if it stay above the 1.50s and
potentially 1.60s then you mite see a short squeeze. We are still
seeing up swing  momentum of ETFC not needing any TARP Money form the
GOV and ETFC is in a better condition then one year ago. ETFC is in
good shape and if they get buyout Win/win for everyone.

Could be "t" - could be new folks laying bets.  Looks like "street"
bets to me b/c the volume is not all that high.

My opinion for what it's worth is there is no new talk of takeover,
it's just new money comming in looking for the stocks with the biggest
upside. A $1.50 stock with an improving balance sheet and a killer
broker business. Not expensive and the last real oppurtunity in this
sector. We don't have to have a buyout to get to the promised land. It
a smart play for the right risk takers and the world is full of them
just us.

simple math, downside is 1.50, upside is between 3-4$, that is a good

It looks good, until the sell off. I hope no sell off today. 1.52
looks promising. Keep it a rising.
