All: I would like to give this thread fair warning. I have just purchased a small amount of CKFR at 50 1/2, with the intent to hold it long term. If history regarding my past longs is any guide, CKFR should promptly nosedive. Heck, it's already down a point <g>. I was attracted to CKFR because of the recent run up in the net banks. I am loathe to purchase them because of their manic run ups. Further, I worry about competition coming in from different quarters. However, it seems to me that CKFR would be a likely candidate to pick up business from any of these new competitors in online banking. I strongly believe that people will move to a paper free method of paying bills in the future. CKFR seems to be the logical choice to bet on that prediction. I'd definitely appreciate and entertain opinions contrary to my own. Barb
