ETFC is another company which I personally do business with; I have a IRAs and investment accounts with Etrade. Etrade, has recently reached the point, so they say, where they could be considered as a potential buyout target. I like Etrade and content with the services. However, I can't really compare to other companies like AMTD or Scott trades or w/e, but I'm content with Etrade, and happy with the services. The recent reported news have also added to my opinion on ETFC also. Overall, I feel that Etrade is a good company, maybe not all the way fundamentally right now, but sooner or later, whether it get's acquired or not, I think it'll be a good company to keep in the long run.
