As Bank Industry Analysts Lose Jobs, Serious Blogs Take the Forefront

They should all be fired and their corrupted employers should all go under because nobody needs these thieves who work only to get small investors out of their money , period.

Discover Financial: A Creditable Investment - Barron's

User 138602: I understand your frustration with DFS stock price and that you gave up because I went through the same feeling but I sold only a small portion of my stake so far to respect my margin restrictions.I can comfirm you that no settlement has been announced since I follow that stock on a daily basis and would have heard of.My understanding is that DFS is seeking 6 billions$ and that the trial should begin this month if there is no settlement before. To Gigs:You are right with your math but these numbers are those mentionned in Barron article.When I read that article I noticed that too,I think Ryan was talking of a premium of 60% to 110% which appears much more realistic given the low price of the stock.

Discover Financial: A Creditable Investment - Barron's

I mentionned several times in my comments here that DFS was outrageously undervalued.Now that Barron wrote this article, I hope it will help DFS stock price but have hesitation since this market is crazy and sick, though longer term DFS is a sure bet according to me. More, in their article they even not mentionned the potential settlement with MA and V that I beleive will be annouced soon and may represents several billions$ for DFS and alone add between 4$ and 10$ to the stock price.

Speculators Bigger Players in Futures, Options Markets Than Thought

Great article , that simply proves what I have always known.So, can someone explain me why Bush administration was willing to spend 1 trillion or more ( and thousands of killed americans) for a silly war in Irak in the name of national security ( during that war the barrel went from $20 to $150) and did nothing to stop these speculators who jeopardized our economy and are a much greater threat to our national security than Saddam and his sons were.BIG MANIPULATION AND ONCE AGAIN EVERYTHING TO PLEASE HIS FREINDS TO THE DETRIMENT OF AN ENTIRE NATION.

How Much Credit Is Too Much? Where AmEx Went Wrong

I noticed from yesterday comments as well as the first one today that many commenters are aggressively attacking DFS. I do not know why.Is it because your darling stocks ( V and MA) stopped sky-rocketing and may even start nosediving in the future? Whether you like it or not DFS is no longer a small player and will grow much more rapidly than other players in the industry because DFS has a very good management knowing where they go.It is absolutly false that DFS is targeting low FICO , they simply manage their risk in a more conservative way.Do not forget that estimated revenues this year for DFS are around 4B$,for MA 5B$ and for V 6B$.Last quarter DFS earned .48 per share while V earned .58. Not so bad for a company that its cc is not accepted anywhere and has only poor clients.Anyway , keep buying your darlings and I will keep buying DFS.
