Jan. 15 (Bloomberg) -- E*Trade Financial Corp., the online brokerage that’s been unprofitable for two years, climbed the most in a month after the Daily Telegraph said the company is in talks about a sale.
The stock rose 6.4 percent to $1.84 in Nasdaq Stock Market trading after the Telegraph said the talks were advanced and the company has shut down applications for new accounts. E*Trade spokeswoman Pam Erickson said that the company shut down applications for international locales in connection with a previously announced restructuring and that it doesn’t comment on market speculation or rumors.
E*Trade has been the subject of takeover speculation for most of 2009. The New York-based company has lost $3.49 billion since the third quarter of 2007 from loan defaults, causing rumors to circulate that another brokerage may want to buy the company or some of its assets. The shares surged 9 percent on Nov. 18 after TD Ameritrade Holding Corp.’s chief executive officer told Reuters he would consider buying the rival at the right price.
Toronto-Dominion Bank CEO Edmund Clark said yesterday that it is “probably going to take all of 2010” before E*Trade’s balance sheet recovers and investors can determine what the company is worth. TD Bank is TD Ameritrade’s largest shareholder.

"During 2009 we achieved the highest revenue, gross profit margin and earnings per share in our Company's nearly 20-year history," said Manouch Moshayedi, STEC's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer."
Great!
So STEC drops 25% on the news.

i'm no m4m...
mary I think observed...that if option volume exceeds open interest prior to earnings that is a powerful indication to the direction of the earnings result pos/neg
however using ESRX option action on 2/24 as an example the mar80 puts vol>oi but the it was a sale
我想我說話太多必須加大工作力度
