EyeDr.Mike--Well, I guess like a few other things, all of us have opinions... While you may find this acquisition "pathetic"--it doesn't appear that everyone is in agreement with you. I posted Motley Fool's mostly admiring comments, and Raymond James just upgraded ETrade on the basis of it. "RESEARCH ALERT - ETrade upped to a buy on deal MIAMI, June 2 (Reuters) - Raymond James & Associates on Wednesday raised ETrade Group (Nasdaq:EGRP - news) from a neutral to a buy, saying an agreed takeover of Telebanc Financial (Nasdaq:TBFC - news) would give ETrade a big edge over online finance rivals. -- ''E*Trade has established itself as the premier blue chip in the Internet financial space,'' the brokerage said in a research note. ''Its leadership position may be difficult for other companies to emulate and therefore this stock deserves superior valuation.'' I guess what is "pathetic" to some looks like it's brilliant to others... Cheers...
