When they unload this I expect the stock to hit the $10 plus. The mortgage assets along with the shorts have continued to hold their stock down. At the end on friday at 3:59 someone bought 4 million shares of etrade stock. I do believe that when etrade gets rid of their mortgage assets off their books someone will attempt to acquire them or do a merger. Either way I'm long Etrade. I would like to hear from CEO Layton, I like him to give us an update on the sale of etrade of canada. Its supposed to be completed in the 3rd quarter and I would also like him to discuss the addition this weekend of etrade in the middle east they were just issued a license. I like hime to issue a press release weekly talking about the business. He needs to be on the offensive.]]> Sun, 21 Sep 2008 19:26:27 -0400 ETFC) its a company I continue to believe in and like you said they have done a fantastic job selling some non core assets to give them almost and additional billion dollar cash cushion and the cash will come in handy as their bad assets that they have on their books is short term.

Now that I own over 30,000 shares I want to see them go it alone. I'm in for the long hall and I agree Etrade is slowly selling off assets of their non core business so that their profits and balance sheet will quadruple by the 3rd quarter and it will become more expensive if a company was to buy them or me out. Analysts won't upgrade Etrade because they would have to admit they were wrong and that they caused this problem. Analysts are losing their value with investors and if they are careful about being fair to companies like Etrade they will be out of a job. Etrade is getting leaner by getting rid of senior mananagment that caused this problem and ETRADE CEO and Chairman Layton is putting in people they he knows will grow the business profits. So I expect the stock to increase over the next week. I was surprised that Analysts didn't upgrade Etrade after first quarter results, they believed Etrade would report a billion dollar in mortgage writedowns in the first quarter, Etrade surprised them and reported out a 124 million dollar write down and with this write down they accelerated some write downs and defaults. Lets see others wrote off billions while Etrade wrote off millions, I looked at this as a positive. I do believe Etrade CEO Layton needs to be talking about the positives Etrade accomplished each and every week.]]> Sun, 27 Apr 2008 10:37:54 -0400 ETFC) would be bought out giving me a quick couple dollars.

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.]]> Tue, 26 Feb 2008 16:20:18 -0500

I still believe Etrade will be acquired in the coming months, but if they are not I know it will be higher come next year. As an investor I plan long-term growth. One can complain all about the numbers of last year, just remember this is a new year and the share price will go up know matter how many rogue Analysts try to destroy Etrade's brand image and shake customer confidence. I'm here to stay and I have deaf ears when it comes to Analysts. I believe Citigroup is getting what they deserve when it employ’s Rogue analysts Bhatia, he clearly has it out for Etrade. The further it’s share price sinks the better. I would sell all my Citigroup.

I also noticed that someone bought over two million shares at open. Does anyone know whom?

I will continue to purchase shares because I know as each quarter goes by the share price will significantly increase and I'm in the belief it could top the $16 range by the 3rd quarter results. I currently own almost 40,000 shares.

I would like Etrade do report out weekly with some information. This will silence all nay Sayers except one. Citigroup...

I was thrilled today to see how far Citigroup share has fallen over the last 6 months. I believe there rogue analyst Bhatia's time would be better spent giving an honest assessment on his own company. I think if he did he would find himself unemployed.

I also believe Etrade is in buyout talks. The reason I believe this is because the share price is extremely undervalued and they haven't replaced their CEO. I kind of figure that why replace the CEO and pay him a severance package when you know it am going to be sold. What are some of your opinions? Will Etrade be acquired in the next two months?
