The only problem is that why do they have a negative outlook for EPS growth. They had $0.08 last quarter but now they expect -0.17.. Jenna, E-Trade publicly stated a few quarters ago, they would be forgoing profits for some time, in order to grow accounts with huge advertising budgets. Look for top line growth, account growth, trading volume growth; all sequential. Earnings mean little right now. They are trying to be "branded" as THE web broker. They are kind of using an AMZN business model right now, but unlike AMZN, they can probably return to profitability at will.

EGRP, EGRP and EGRP... and the nets.. Spent a good part of the day researching stocks for next week and the stock that stands out (that I don't already own is EGRP).. With the combined powerhouses of EGRP, BVSN, CNET, AWRE and USWB (for the beginning of the week) I really do expect a good week next week. Of course in this market built on the viscissitudes of fickle analysts and foreign economies, I hope things will turn out the way they should, according the natural enfolding of earnings season. I have also some pretty good candidates that are not from the internet or technology sectors. The earnings plays newsletter should be ready by Sunday 12:00 p.m. or earlier.
