Read this if you don't think it's "highly debatable" that ETrade has room to grow!* I did say, it is "highly debatable". (therefore, yes, I think it is highly debatable). So your statement contradicts your earlier post. To clarify... Here is where my comment "It is highly debatable" originated: ETrade has more room for growth. Message 10013111 Please note I did not say, E-Trade has no room for growth. The question is WHICH broker has more room for growth. Could it be E-Trade, or Schwab. Re-read my post, so you can better understand what I stated, here is the link: techstocks.com -- 72% of websites are based in the US -- 92% of e-commerce is generated through US-based websites COMMENT: These numbers are so big, we can't grasp them yet. But we know we want to be invested here!" This comment (and the stats), further strengthens my point. Schwab is not going to sit idle and watch E-Trade take their lunch. Indeed the market is so large, that Schwab may indeed grow at a larger rate than E-Trade, (in spite of its current size). A buy-out ? Hmm that may be a thought, if warranted.... given increased competition by the dinosaurs.... but I think too early... I think, after all.... you are the one drinking.... <g>
