More from Motley Fool: "Though the earnings and price-to-sales multiples on these [on-line broker] stocks look out-of-sight, there's good reason. The online brokers appear to be the perfect Internet businesses. They've got a highly addictive repeat-purchase business that's already nicely profitable if you discount the discretionary ad spending. While marketing costs will remain high for a while as the hot competition gets even hotter, one could argue that even E*Trade is under-spending in its efforts to gain market share since the long-term value of each customer is much higher than the acquisition costs. And that value is increasing."
