ML - Merrill Lynch. Could be that some people are thinking that Merrill will offer online trading in Canada too eventually - that's competition for E-Trade. I think that Merrill's move into online trading has made some investors realize that the big brokerages are tired of losing clients to E-Trade etc. Now they're going to fight to keep those clients. As for "V" - the long-term opportunity is still there, it's just that the market has to sort out the impact of Merrill's and potentially other big brokerages' moves. This could turn out to be a chance to get some cheap V shares. Caution for now.
