Interesting CBSMarketWatch Article about E-Brokerages.

I had no idea of average EGRP investor holding periods, but would you believe it is 3 WEEKS??

cbs.marketwatch.com

"The average investor holds E-Trade stock, for example, for about three weeks, he said. "They're turning over their entire capital base 15 times a year. ... It leads me to conclude that no one really owns this stock. They're renting it."
