Good grief, Top. You have me back on the TWE fence again!

I like TWE long term. But while I also like the heck out of BNBN long term, the simple fact is that I could've bought it @ 14 and change, with no holding restrictions.

Top Annuity,I completerly agree with your scenario of water house. One more Golman below IPO price now is ZDZ (float 10 million).

Out of my 4 accounts, I did IOI one day later in one of the account and one IOI in a flipped account. If I get a confirmation mail I know it is trouble. I have asked for 400 in the flipped account. I want to take waterhouse(if they allocate) in the flipped account and try to flip.
They gave BNBN to flippers.

Again Goldman had a 60 million float but has been holding remarkably well. Now if I get confirmation request in my flipped account and in the account with a 1 day late IOI, will know how strong the demand is.
Hope they give waterhouse to flippers.

eTrade is much better investment at these prices than waterhouse IMHO.

top,

i might agree with u if ur trying to time the market for waterhouse....but we should want this company not for the pop(cause there probably wont be much of one) but rather the long term value over the next few yrs....waterhouse is the #3 online broker and has 2-3 times as many accounts as etrade and prob. 10 times as much as ameritrade and ur trying to tell me that its not worth $24 a share?....without the splits, etrade would be over $100 right now....egrp has 250 M shares outstanding and since waterhouse is floating 32M, it wouldnt surprise me if their total shares outstanding is similar....think about this, the top four online brokers are schwab, waterhouse, etrade and ameritrade....just look at the charts for the ones that are already trading(ie-schwab,egrp,amtd) for the past yr, that speaks for itself.....jmo.
