Try a turkey-- from Thom Calandras' Stock Watch cbs.marketwatch.com Turkey themes E-Trade, in one come-on to customers, tried the turkey theme this week. For those outside the United States, Thanksgiving next week is a U.S. holiday during which day-traders and other fortunate souls celebrate by eating turkey and all the trimmings. "Let's talk turkey," E-Trade says. "Some of us have stocks that, well, haven't performed quite as well as we had hoped. If that's the case, don't let it ruffle your feathers. Now you have a great opportunity to dump those turkeys -- and gobble up some winners -- thanks to our Second Annual Turkey Day Special." E-Trade customers who place buy or sell stock orders between 4 p.m. ET next Wednesday, the day before the Thanksgiving holiday, and 11:59 p.m. ET on Thursday, Thanksgiving Day, will get their second trade for free -- if it executes next Friday.
