Re: Merrill Lynch odd lots. No I'm not sure what ML's minimums are. I opened a cash account several months ago for 12 shares @$202, and have added a small amount since then.
be careful, if you live in a state like texas, they may refuse your order, citing "blue-sky laws"...yeah, i've been looking forward to Steve's analysis, which I've been expecting for several months now...(I follow him closely for years, and now he's got a column on CNBC.com!),

netconductor, thanks for the info

i will contact merril. any idea how big a block (or an account) merril requires to buy softbank?

since steve harmon is about to tout softbank soon, this thread should get busier.

thanks in advance.
