ML Online has done well in bringing in the clients otherwise unobtainable. They also have an unlimited trade "wrap account" framework that has achieved the same feat.
Going forward, the online capabilities of MER will bring more clients to the table, but I can't fathom it separating itself from Momma Merill. It is the value added of Momma Merrill there to help which makes people want to trade there as opposed to E Trade.
Who knows, perhaps the semiannual MER takeover rumor could come to fruition and then all hell breaks loose. Interesting thought, however. Stay long.
