Had some fun short time I was in the room today. Tried two quick flips and broke even all in all. Learned how to read a one minute chart better, and learned I need to compare it to the big picture. If a fellow combined all the tools you folks use to pick moving stocks he could make a pretty decent living. Anyone have a tax system they use that works best for them? I am considering adding trading as a main revenue source other than real estate, ect... That stuff gives me stomach aches anyway. I need a system better than "give it to my accountant at the end of the year". Thanks for any input in advance.
That siaf chart is incredible. That stock will not stop. Someone needs shares and I think they should be starting to be concerned. Thats not to be conceited but I have plenty of free shares to watch with. If only I had landed it in my Roth.
Etrade needs a pr, but I have noticed across the board the news wires are slow each day. When I read in the evening there are fewer and fewer to read. We need the pump job on the market to get the sideline money out. Employment numbers tomorrow. If they are good look out above. IF bad, I am a buyer in the 1.20 range, hopeing Obama pumps the market somehow.
Havent been around much this summer, but you guys are knocking them out of the park. The room is hopping when I get to listen between meetings. Hope to be around a little more soon. Later
Glad I didnt, but I am a seller soon. Opportunities abound.
When I have time to read your posts I am amazed at your knowledge. You have a fan here and keep up the good work.
still here, holding a bunch, dad has a bunch. We aint selling. Need I update more? Back to work and cya at $2.00, just to tell ya cya at ? You get the drift.
This company at the end of the day could make or brake the confidence in Canadas market. Look at the time table. They also have real assets. .15 is a joke in my opinion and someone saving this company could produce the mother of all short squeezes. By far the biggest risk in my portfolio, but I am a buyer and can always trade out of a loss somehow. We need volume. This stock is getting little notice right now. I figure $45,000 worth traded today. Wait until we get to 500k and then 1000k a day. Patience is hard on these for me, lol.
You have a valid point, but I think up until this time it was just survive. Layton has played these games and won. The poster earlier made a great point I had forgotten about. He is getting compensation in stock. If the market can convince the old money the recession is on its way out of here, then we will explode. I typically vote Republican, but the far right is making this thing worse than it is. Get off the sidelines old money and lets rock. The volume across the board is still not in bull market mode in my opinion. Lots of cash free. I am a heavy buyer on the next dip, but wont hold those unless it turns. Good luck all, I have to go back to a real business now. Someday I will do this full time, but not yet. All in all ETFC is still not money I need invested long term, but it and UIS on the tech side are the two best most bang for the buck I see as potential huge longs. Nice input from all.
Still in the air on this one. Holding a nice profit, but may blow it out and look elsewhere.
Layton is playing it by the book. In my opinion, having the authority to raise the outstanding shares can prevent a takeover. If ever there was one I believe ETFC is it. Trust him or not, I think he is ahead of the curve and has always been. Good luck.
We need a small catalyst and I think we can see .21 quickly and hold there. I own a bunch now. Good luck. My avg. is .11 in one account and about .115 in two others.
point taken...Lets see what happens.

E*TRADE FINANCIAL Corporation Reports Monthly Activity for May 2009; Provides Updates to Loan Delinquencies and Certain Financial and Balance Sheet Metrics
NEW YORK, Jun 17, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- E*TRADE FINANCIAL Corporation (NASDAQ: ETFC) today released its Monthly Activity Report for May and provided an intra-quarter update on its loan portfolio delinquencies and certain key financial and balance sheet metrics.
The Company ended May with record total accounts of more than 4.5 million, which included record brokerage accounts of more than 2.7 million. This included gross new brokerage accounts of 43,000 and net new brokerage accounts of 23,000. Total Daily Average Revenue Trades ("DARTs") for May were 239,439 - an increase of 4 percent from April and 34 percent from the year ago period. The Company reported approximately 220,000 DARTs for June month to date (as of June 12), with second-quarter DARTs on track to be approximately 15 percent higher than the prior quarter.
Asset flows continued to be positive, as the Company realized $500 million in net new customer assets during May, marking the eighth consecutive month of positive inflows. Total customer cash and deposits (including brokerage-related cash) decreased slightly during the month, while total customer assets increased 5.8 percent. Customers were net buyers of more than $450 million in securities during the month.
The Company also provided an update concerning delinquencies in its loan portfolio. Special mention delinquencies (30 to 89 days delinquent) for its home equity portfolio, which represents the Company's greatest exposure to loan losses, declined 10 percent from March 31 to May 31. Home equity "at risk" delinquencies (30 to 179 days delinquent) declined 14 percent from March 31 to May 31. Total special mention delinquencies for the Company's loan portfolio, which includes one- to four-family, home equity and consumer and other loans, declined by 7 percent quarter to date as of May 31, 2009.
Detailed information concerning loan delinquencies is provided in table form on page 4 of this release.
The Company also provided an update to certain key financial and balance sheet metrics through the first two months of the second quarter of 2009, as well as certain forecasts for the second quarter 2009 results. The Company cautions that this data is preliminary as of June 12, 2009 and subject to change.
April and May Quarter-to-Date Results
•Total Net Revenue of $448 million
•Commission, Fees and Other Revenue of $165 million
•Operating Expense of $192 million
May Bank Capital Metrics (as of May 31, 2009)
•Bank Tier-1 and risk-based capital ratios of 6.07% and 12.75%, respectively
•Bank excess risk-based capital (excess to the regulatory well-capitalized threshold) of $644 million
•Bank Tier-1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 11.46%
Net revenue totaled $448 million for April and May, inclusive of gains on the sale of agency mortgage-backed securities of $54 million. Commission, fees and other revenue totaled just over $165 million, and operating expenses totaled just over $192 million for April and May.
The Company also forecasted a range for loan loss provision and expected net charge-offs for the full second quarter:
•Estimated provision for loan losses of $375 million to $450 million
•Estimated net charge-offs of $375 million to $400 million
The estimated range for net charge-offs and provision expenses are based on a combination of actual data from the Company's loan servicers through the second month of the quarter, a forecast for loan charge-offs and recoveries for the month ended June 30, 2009, and an updated loan loss forecast as of April 30, 2009, following the Company's standard quarterly procedures. The forecast is based on actual loan delinquencies through April 30, 2009, and model calibration for delinquency roll rates was based on results as of the same period. The Company's methodology for estimating allowance for loan losses is more fully described in E*TRADE FINANCIAL's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2009, and the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed May 14, 2009.
