E*Trade Moveing To Block Hostile Takeover http://finance.google.com/group/google.finance.659127/browse_thread/thread/44a2e630779d2129 From: aajones...@gmail.com - view profile Date: Wed, Apr 16 2008 10:13 pm Email: aajones...@gmail.com Not yet rated Rating: show options Reply | Reply to Author | Forward | Print | Individual Message | Report Abuse | Find messages by this author Today I did some due diligence and worked on looking up some information on what the Schedule 14 involved that was filed by E*Trade to the Securities and Exchange Commission. I have been spending time on the Yahoo message board and in relation to my findings on page 29 of the form (link Provided), I found a blog from a poster on the Yahoo site that peaked my attention and made me realize that the feeling I had was correct. E*Trade has been being maneuvered into a corner and poised for a hostile takeover by one if not more of its largest shareholders. Names not mentioned on purpose. Any one of you who watches the stock is well aware that multiple block shares for millions of shares have been being taken up over and over again. All the while, counter parties to their plan have been throwing downgrades after downgrades onto E*Trade for months now, and some have even been yelling the "B" word and causing a bankrun on E*Trade, trying to bring the brokerage giant to its knees. Today the stock traded over 52,702,995 shares and was taken down repeatedly over and over again from its previous close of $3.41 and down to a low of $3.26. E*Trade only has about 15million shares of common stock left to offer and in lieu of that, they are voting to double their common stock from about 600 million shares to 1.2 billion shares. Simultaneously, other bashers all in unison have been shouting out to everyone and on many message boards that the shareholders will be diluted and crushed. This is simply a lie and a tactic used to scare current shareholders into selling what lot of shares they have left because E*Trade is nearly out of common stock. In relationship to this, E*Trade is having its Annual Corporate Meeting on May 16th. Since one share of common stock is good for one vote at the annual meeting, we must take heed that E*Trade is in the possible position to be taken over by a large shareholder or at the least voted into a takeover by unanimous vote without the best interest of all of the shareholders bid to concede. In an event like this, we can reflect on the previous news conferences we have been watching on CNBC with Ameritrade CEO Moglia, and also reflect on the knowledge we have that Citadel owner Ken Griffith owns interest in other brokerages as well. We all know that it has been said that E*Trade would be an option if it weren't for its bank and others have said the same thing about the brokerage business too. In a hostile takeover, we could expect that E*Trade would be divided up and sold off at a very low bid and without proper valuation. Much like we all witnessed with the Bear Stearns takeover, or rather, "Give Away". In as much as I read the post from this GJWJ poster on the yahoo message board, : http://messages.finance.yahoo.com/Stocks_%28A_to_Z%29/Stocks_E/thread... I realized that she was absolutely right about this. I would not be surprised to find out that on or about the May 16th annual meeting, E*Trade is set up for a hostile takeover. For what its worth, I am in complete agreement. It makes absolutely no sense at all to me that so many downgrades by other banks make such an inefficient call on their performance when out of the past three months E*Trade has been showing increasing signs that they will actually post a profit by years end if not sooner. Seems very funny to me that E*Trade would be downgraded by its peers with pressure on it calling for E*Trade shareholders to sell their stakes in the company when all the while yelling that "they" were in great shape for the same downward trend they were going through with the sub prime conditions as E*Trade is. Does that seem a little wrong to you? check out Page 29 of the SEC Schedule 14 here at this link: http://secfilings.nasdaq.com/filingFrameset.asp?FileName=0001193125%2... Reply
