Today probably isn't the day that Brokerage stocks will wake up, but once that money hits the market and the trading volume moves from half billion share days to full billion share days. . . I think we will see an upgrade of one of the major brokerage houses. . .why not just upgrade yourself? However, I am getting the feeling that the prices in online brokerage stocks are declining this AM for the purpose of covering short positions at lower prices.. . . so watch the leaders for a sign of turnaround today. . .it is possible that we see a sudden spike today after all. . . though I think it will probably occur next week. NDB has been given a haircut on a 4 percent lowering of earnings expected. . . .duh. . . didn't they just spend a bundle on upgrading their online infrastructure? And weren't they called to 100 by a major firm? And aren't they getting many of the serious traders? And aren't they one of the only online brokers that even HAS positive earnings? IFSX became ABWG or AWBG or ABGW or something like that. . . it is undervalued in the brokerage arena, IMO, based on the same reasoning I gave ETOYS . . the IPO was in a dull market. . . TWE is another just like that . . . eventually, I see these two joining the ranks of those like SIEB, NITE, AMTD, EGRP. . . . not sure what the latest is on JBOH. . .they sure advertise a lot . . . they were in trouble for a while earlier in the year. . . .unless that trouble was just planted bash-journalism by shorts. . .which is looking more like the truth. . . not sure. . .perhaps someone here can do a little research and let us know. MHMY is William's baby sleeper in this group. . .as is EAST. SCH had an offline day last week, which is sure to cost them big time.

William, I nominate HMGN to our timing play list. . . they seem to get an FDA approval news on a regularly timed rate. . .and are good for about a double each time. . . plus with the 6 mil float, it is just volatile enough, but not so much that it is likely burn us. Today's intraday looks like a heart monitor. I do like BIPL, but we need to discuss it on the fishing thread these days. . . another one I like in that group is AFPC. AHWY volume pretty strong today.
