RESEARCH ALERT - E*Trade upped to a buy on deal
MIAMI, June 2 (Reuters) - Raymond James & Associates on Wednesday raised E*Trade Group (Nasdaq:EGRP - news) from a neutral to a buy, saying an agreed takeover of Telebanc Financial (Nasdaq:TBFC - news) would give E*Trade a big edge over online finance rivals.

-- ''E*Trade has established itself as the premier blue chip in the Internet financial space,'' the brokerage said in a research note. ''Its leadership position may be difficult for other companies to emulate and therefore this stock deserves superior valuation.''

-- Raymond James said the $1.8 billion takeover announced on Tuesday may be difficult to close but that it expected the deal to go through.

-- E*Trade shares were down 63 cents to $38.63 in late afternoon trading.
