Awesome company and great CEO.... Company that got caught up with too much greed but it is a good strong financial play. Buy Merril Lynch for the long term will yield investors with plenty of profits. The company is selling off bad assets all beit at a fifth of their value and raising capital. Merrill Lynch with most of its value lost this year is agreat buy and should in the near future start reversing the downtrend and be a hit financial stock once again and emerging from this credit crunch as a raging bull......
