E*TRADE'S INVESTMENTS PAY OFF

E*Trade Group's (EGRP, $21) unrealized gains on its stakes in Internet
companies more than doubled to $610 million in the Dec. 31 quarter.

COMMENT: This will become a source of financing for E*Trade's further
expansion. It means that they will not have to borrow as much and will
not have to issue more stock at the current depressed value. While some

of the gains might disappear if the stock market sells off, they still
should have substantial equity to call upon for expansion. EOM

E*Trade to Set Up Physical Deposit Locations, FT Reports
By Michael Dixon

New York, Feb. 21 (Bloomberg) -- E*Trade Group Inc.'s online
bank will set up physical locations this year for taking deposits
without establishing to traditional storefront branches, the
Financial Times reported, citing Mitchell Caplan, Telebanc
Financial Corp.'s chief executive, whose Virginia-based online
bank was taken over by E*Trade last month. Following customer
demand for deposit locations, E*Trade is looking for a solution
that is cheap and doesn't necessarily involve human presence.
``Kiosk' networks and automated teller machines are among the
possibilities and alliances or an acquisition could be involved,
the newspaper said.

E*Trade's unrealized gains on its stakes in Internet
companies more than doubled to $610 million in the Dec. 31
quarter, though it borrowed more than $100 million from banks in
the period.
