Well, I'm relieved you're not short <ggg>. I'm thinking since the big boys didn't squash the little online brokerages like bugs, and banks are notoriously slow...watching the situation like a hawk though. Robbie

<<robbie, I really haven't got one.[an opinion on NTBK's future] I'm a little cautious because the big banks could squash them like a bug.>> I don't think so. The big-banks have "bricks and mortar branches" and much more expenses in processing each piece of paperwork. Also, NTBK's cost of picking up a new customer is lower, and traditionally, NTBK's new accounts have been higher-balance account holders. That is because the internet savvy customers tend to be higher income. Is your income above average? NTBK: ~ $31.00 VALUESPEC
