Merrill is certainly one ordsprog

Merrill is certainly one of the most attractive of the brokerage firms in the industry and it would be a nice set with Chase on paper in terms of product line. Merrill is at the top of the rumor list relative to Chase.

Up until now, Schwab has been setting the pace in online brokerage. Merrill, though, is a bolt from the blue. Eight months ago, Merrill wasn't even in the online trading game. Merrill was held back only by the high cost of its online trading account.

This is chump change to Merrill. Merrill can be an 800 pound gorilla and demand money and sue, but it hurts their chances in the future of acquiring firms and competing for brokers in the marketplace.

I don't think there's any [major brokerage] operating at 100 percent efficiency. It's just that Merrill has a little more room to scale back than some of the other firms, but I view that as an opportunity.

Two that need to be looked at are J.P. Morgan and Merrill Lynch. J.P. Morgan because they have been heavily involved internationally over the last couple of years, and Merrill Lynch is the leading retail financial brokerage stock in the country. How they did coming out of the fourth quarter is very important.

You've seen several commercial banks make acquisitions of smaller regional brokerage firms this year, and all of them believe quite sincerely that they are going to grow revenues as a result and gain market share because they now offer one-stop comprehensive financing for their customers. At the same time I don't think Merrill Lynch is planning to lose any business.

When I look at the list, Chase is running the company. Chase paid a lot for J.P. Morgan and it's theirs to run.

Trading is the biggest business in the world, one of the fastest-growing and one of the best, and Merrill has been behind the curve here. This quarter shows that Merrill is catching up to where it needs to be.

Joe is a perfect fit for Ameritrade. The board and I are so enthused by the wealth of experience he brings, and the common vision he shares. From his experience at Merrill, Joe commands a unique insight on the brokerage industry, and an energizing management style.

Even before Merrill Lynch made its announcement, there was competition to add more bells and whistles to your Web site. Merrill's decision will definitely motivate fund companies even more.

I think Merrill should just capitalize on what they already have. As a Merrill shareholder, I wouldn't like this move.

Overall Merrill delivered a solid quarter across the board. Revenues were a record and expense management, a staple for Merrill, was solid.

Enron's deceptions were shocking, and equally shocking was the extent to which respected U.S. financial institutions like Chase, Citigroup, and Merrill Lynch helped Enron carry out its deceptions and mislead investors and analysts about the company's finances,
