  • E*TRADE Financial: It Was Good to Be Long  [View article]
    RegARDING eTRADE. ALL I can RECALL ABOUT e-TRADE WAS WHEN IT FIRST HIT SKID ROW, SOMEONE CALLED IN TO cRAMER AND ASKED HIM ABOUT IT AND HE COMPARATIVELY BLEW THE GUY OFF. SAYING SOMETHING LIKE, DON'T EVEN BOTHER TALKING ABOUT e-TRADE, THEIR OVER, FINISHED, END OF STORY. (Caps Sorry)

    I like Cramer very much, but that particular call just stuck with me as almost being condescending to this guy. end of story

    Point of similarity, regarding the last minute trades od E-Trade with a lot of shares.

    I just read an article very similar to Sirius and the same thing happening. Only, as I recall, it was a lot more shares in 3 different blocks, all at the last minute/. as a matter of fact, the author note that from 3:30 - 4, there was no purchase or sales for 100 shares or anything close. He seems to feel the stock is being manipulated as for the first time in awhile that day Siri actually made it too over a dollar and than this. How do the big guys just take over a whole half hour of trading on a single security. I'm sure it's not that hard, but sees illogical and almost criminal to me. I'm not a pro, so what do I know
