Re: “The Quants: How a New Breed of Math Whizzes Conquered Wall Street and Nearly Destroyed It 
Nice article. Hedge fund industry is one of the few
industries that got out control over the years (along

Re: if some one wanted to buy 
Not true. They want to buy it... without r/e loans,
that is. What we have ahead of us is expiration of
first time homebuyer tax credit in April and possible
interest rate increase(s) by the end of the year.
Both will have...

Re: Yeng and Yang of Conference Call 
Let's say you have some debt. Some at 0% per year,
some at 6%, and some at 9%. If you stumble on some
cash - which debt will you reduce first?

Re: Etrade out of Banking!!!! 
It was covered on a conf. call. Non-event. It'd
be great if they could unload their loan portfolio
with similar ease.

Re: Insider buying. Good or bad? 
Your understanding of insider trading is primitive.
First of all, ETFC insiders are set up to get the
stock for free. The fact that they have been holding

Re: so let me try and understand this... 
I agree, Cool Breeze. You pointed out the two main
issues. Rapid dollar appreciation of the Dollar against
the Euro created a headwind for the US stock market
also. We went from $1.52 for the Euro to $1...

Re: Scumbags At Work 
I have very little doubt that the same thing happened
with ETFC when it had a large secondary in 2009.

Scumbags At Work 
Another day in the life of a hedge fund. This practice
is widespread, and it shows just how helpless the
SEC is in fighting the hedge funds. http://www.ny

Re: According to this article price cut won&&39;t hurt revenue much 
I would agree with you 100%, Eagles, IF ETFC was the
only one cutting its commissions and fees. ETFC is
forced into this, though.

Re: Headline Unemployment & Looks Sexy 
Yes, we got that bounce! The volume was out of this
world today. SPY has put in a nice Hammer, too, so
we may get a reversal next week in the US (unless
BS debt issues in Europe will mess it up for us).

Re: Protecting Your ETFC Position 
My initial cost basis was $1.66, so I'd be in the

Re: According to this article price cut won&&39;t hurt revenue much 
Do you know what a 20/80 rule is? 20% of the salespeople
close 80% of deals, etc. etc. It's called the
Pareto rule, and it applies to ETFC clients give or

Re: Protecting Your ETFC Position 
My concern is the effect of the price war on ETFC earnings.
This war will affect an adverse effect on both their
revenues and EPS, and there is no way around it. It
also makes ETFC a less valuable takeover...
