S&P Upgrades E*Trade Despite Struggling Financial Sector Peers

Hi Cindy,

I've followed your ETFC articles for several months now and while I'm rooting for them to recover (no current position) the frequency of articles that you generate on ETFC (especially considering that on SeekingAlpha you're batting 1.000 since April on ETFC articles) makes me think you're a part-time employee in the PR department. The lack of other writers on this site even mentioning the stock is next to nil, and while I understand trying to buying on the cheap and sharing your investment advice with others, I also understand catching a falling knife and pumping. While I wouldn't go as far as to call you an E-Trade pumper, especially because it looks like you put effort and thought into your articles, your undying confidence vs. everyone's else indifference or neglect isn't exactly inspirational.

I think ETFC is a covered call idea at best for the time being. There's no positive momentum in the stock and the way the market is moving right now, especially financials, it's hard to want to throw my money at it. Good luck though...
