What the hell is happening to this stock since its split? I take a longer and broader perspective. I look at this link for solace--Pretty good analysis (posted here a bit earlier). cassbeth.com

I try to take a long view on this one. I've been buying shares like crazy. This morning I got 500 shares at 40. I got shares yesterday and the day before. before this week my average cost per share was $4.25. I'm not sure what it is now. E*TRADE is a long term winner. once we are thru this correction, it will continue to grow. Everyone forgets they are making a decent commission on trades many times daily plus they are contending for #1 in online brokerages... I cannot tell anyone what or how to do it, but if you wanna panic and sell go right ahead. I just buy more shares. Take a look at the valueline. see what they say. You can find it in almost any library. Valueline is a good litmus indicator for stocks to purchase. oh well I have said my peace. do your DD and then make your decisions. oh I am thinking of opening an account before june 30th. They sent me an app where if i do it they will give me $75 just for signing up.

senor slim, Most all stocks go "DOWN" after a split. It is a very common history. They get over valued and over hyped before the split and this is what happens. I mentioned already this week that we might see the $30's, and we already seen $39 this morning. Go look at EGRP chart after the split in Feb. It is just repeating the pattern. Also check some other charts on post split companies. They almost always do this. ALot of traders short stocks that split either thur coverd call selling or plain sell them short. I am like David Stockwell...I am in it for the long haul, after this bottom is formed, it will return to upward pattern on any good news or earnings forecasts. Just IMO. Let I
