How does that service compare with your MS & Schwab hookup? Would it be more advanced?
Doesn't Intuit already have similar deals with other Brokerages?
Wouldn't this get Intuit in the middle of an E-Commerce deal between the user and their Brokerage? And if so wouldn't it be reasonable to expect a transaction fee from Intuit to the Brokerage, or a least participate with the Brokerages in some way?
Could this Quicken 98 be the "BlockBuster" program this company so desperately needs? I sure seems to have the correct elements, Banks, Brokerage, Bills....to get the "feet wet" in E-Commerce.
The thing I'm wondering about at this point is the QuickBooks Upgrade, the program for Businesses. It sure seems to me that Intuit would include the option to "produce" electronic bills. Just about every small, {mom & pop}, Business I know of uses QuickBooks here in the Midwest, especially Contractors. I mean what better way for Intuit to generate E-Commerce transaction $, than by getting ole QuickBooks Internet ready also?
BTW wasn't on the Ascend thread.
But if you go look at Yahoo, I called it's drop based on first-timmer who was getting in the market using a dartboard..
In GTW, called it's drop and current range, based on it's trading history using Intuits' II....
Finally the only reason I got involved in SI was by accident. I was pulling up info using Alta-Vista on a Stock I was researching...some of the users comments came up in the Search. I came in took a look....
Naturally I went thru the Stock positions I already had. Ran into this guy who at one time was down 150,000+ on a Netscape position. He was debating...know that he had gotten back to break even...what he should be doing. I had just sold completely. I felt for that guy....I'd already nailed down a couple 100% personally on Netscape....I wanted in the worse way to tell him to SELL! I signed up.
incessant rantings......smarter than the analysts. Only on 10% a day Portfolio moves. |
