Seeking Alpha Now Carried On E*Trade [view article]
I'm real dissappointed in Etrades lack of feedback on its mortgage side of the business. How many additional defaults and do they have enough people paying to negate the people not paying?I want to see more info that helps the share value achieve price stability. The more communication the better the shareholders and customers will feel about Etrades brand image.
I would love to see Etrade sold as long as I could keep my shares this may help increase the stock stability and shareholder confidence. Reply

daffy,The SA format is simple. Go to the homepage. The 'news' column is done by SA salaried employees. The 'opinion & analysis' column are articles that are written by non affiliated authors.
For 'opinion & analysis', SA editors work in two modes. First is the 'active draw mode'. In this mode, SA editors enter approximately 50 predetermined sites on a daily basis and draw articles from the site (article aggregation). Second mode is submission mode, where approximately 400+ authors submit articles for publication.
To better the chances of publication, authors have noticed that if they take an opposing view to a recently published article on SA, they have a better chance of getting published. SA loves to pitch all sides of an argument. Likewise, you can submit a well written and documented article and you may not get published if the editors feel that the article does not add anything new to what has already been published. The quality of the writing is second fiddle to the thought process and insight. Remember, SA is not competing with MarketWatch or AP and is not a 'breaking news' service per se.
As for comments, SA never deletes comments based on opinion. You can write the most wacky opinion, as long as it is non derogatory it will stay. Even some personal attacks on authors are left 'as is' as long as the commentator is making a valid argument along with the 'anger attack'.
Anyone can post a comment as long as they register, thus reducing spam.
CrossProfit is not affiliated with SA and we submit articles for publication. To date, about 10% (perhaps 15%) of articles submitted were rejected, sometimes flat out and other times on a re-write basis.
If you need more info, e-mail SA.
SA editors,
Please correct any inaccurate info in this comment.

Seeking Alpha are my boyz. However, E-Trade has been failing its customers and failing to really define what the heck they stand for all these years. The company did backwards Russian equillibristics only to come up with some credit-laden news and blow every respected shareholder out of the water. Count the days before E-trade gets bought out at a really cheap price by some fat-necked Wall Street brokererage. The message was simple in the beginning: Innovate, make it simple and cut costs. E-Trade did not match any of it lately.Rob, WallastonInvestments.c... Reply

I like the comments as much as the articles. Being new at this whole stock trading thing, I sometimes wonder who really works for Seeking Alpha since there seems to be a lot of people here writing articles. I am curious, does SA have it's regular writers and then some freelance writers who submit articles for SA to peruse and possibly publish? Just curious, and it will have no impact on whether I use SA or not, but just might help me decide what to ponder, what to pander, and what to believe.Thanks SA, I have been reading your articles since starting with eTrade. Has anybody tried to get a 1st mortgage through eTrade? If you have, and if you have an opinion, I would like to know how you would rate the availablity of credit from eTrade vs. your previous lender.
That's all folks. And thanks to all the commentors, your opinions are read and appreciated. Reply

I noticed SA entries on ET screen a couple of days ago. However, in order to access SA entries, one has to lead ET screen (meaning from secured to unsecured). Perhaps this point could be improved. ReplySeeking Alpha Now Carried On E*Trade [view article]
Mr. Weinstein, congratulations on your recent recognition. Except for Mr. Shinnick's recent piece, Seeking Alpha has been one of the only reliable sources for accurate and unbiased information related to Etrade stock. It's nice to see your site get the recognition it deserves and it is good to see that Etrade has recognized your site's contribution to many other company analyses. Time and again Seeking Alpha is one of the only good sources of in-depth due diligence for the retail investor. I rely on it often. Thanks for sticking up for the little guy.I do hope your site continues to do its good investigative pieces on Etrade stock as well. I think many are going to be surprised to find out what a turn around story is happening with Etrade. For all of the noise, Etrade customers are among the most loyal around -- Etrade has shown amazing customer retention through this rough patch. Now, the company likely will win back customers and continue to survive and thrive with its superior platform and competitive nature.
It is quite fitting that two renegades, if you will, in the online arena have recognized each other. Etrade has questioned the established Wall Street broker model and Seeking Alpha has taken over the role of the traditional "analyst" in terms of both factual research and analysis. Congrats and best regards. Reply

Also I was very pleased to see Credit Suisse take an almost 3% stake in Etrade. Their previous report dated feb 12, gave Etrade a 12 month price target of $2.50 but 8 days later Credit Suisse paid over $5 a share. Good sign, maybe this is a sign of a new beginning.

Etrade will announce a new CEO by weeks end according to my source within Etrade. The source says that Etrade announced previously that they would announce a new CEo by end of Feb. Two day's ago in an Email they said that they are still on track to report out. ReplyLepoff, M.D.

Great traders are busy minting money and don't have time to write newspaper columns or jump up and down like a monkey on TV.Listening to these snake oil salesman is a complete waste of time. Reply

Everyone gravitates to entertaining news and pretends they can tell the difference. ReplyBarron's vs. Cramer (Yet Another Round) [view article]
Cramer is an entertainer with market experience and a good resume: albeit one that can also provide some level of education on the market in general. He's often funny, sometimes over the top, and sometimes too eager to pass off his whiffs with a weak 'mea culpa'. He does occasionally gets things right.No one should make financial decisions based purely upon what Cramer says, anymore than they should make them on the basis of what ANY talking head says on CNBC, or in Barrons, etc. These media 'experts' should stimulate trading/investing ideas that individuals must further research and understand before deciding to take any positions, short or long.

Neither Cramer or Barron's have great track records when it comes to picks. The one thing they do have in common is they could care less about how the picks perform. Barron's only cares about the number of papers it sells and Cramer (whose only investments according to him is a charitable trust) only cares about ratings and books he sells. If ratings and book sales are high he doesn't care if his next pick is similar to NYX and SHLD or POT and CLF. Reply
