    More on Discover (DFS -3%) FQ4 earnings: Bulls on the high-flier (+61% YTD) may have a buying opportunity as the earnings miss looks to be the result of an 18% increase in expenses thanks to costs associated with the Tree.com acquisition and new partnerships. Operationally: Total loans +6% Y/Y, net interest margin +34 bps, net charge-offs a historical low of 2.29%, delinquency rate of 1.86% down 53 bps. (PR)

    agree.. looks like a chance to climb on board or add to dfs position today!... barring a market meltdown a mid 40's handle looks reasonable on this
