    Subject: Non-Mandatory/Reorg Tender - BAC
    RE: stock symbol BAC

    The above listed stock is part of a non-mandatory reorganization or tender offer, which requires your timely attention. For details regarding this offer, contact your local branch office. Please note that failure to advise Scottrade of your intent may result in no action being taken, and we cannot be held responsible for any resulting loss.

    If you decide to participate in this offer, you will need to inform your local Scottrade branch office no later than 10 a.m. ET on the expiration date, and a $25 fee will be charged to your account.

    These shares must then remain in your account until the reorg/tender takes place (be advised that the expiration due date for such actions is often extended). Please contact us if you have any questions
    yeah, I got that e-mail. I never called ST to find out what the offer was all about, but I did do some googling to see if I could figure it out. No dice, though- just lots of rumors and speculation about it.

    I bought BAC at 6, then got some more yesterday for $3. My wife picked some up at $4, also. I don't yet believe that BAC will fail, but I do worry about a government intervention that wipes out us shareholders... as long as BAC weathers this mess ok, I see it coming back to a $20 or $30 stock again eventually. Of course, I also thought LJPC would make it, so....

      I'm sorry...I forgot to post the followup...I called ST on Tuesday...At that point they were not much help...There was a woman at ST Forums who was rather upset so I suggested she call BAC IR...She did...I believe La Tam is a So. American Bank.

      I did as Doug had suggested and called BAC Investor Relations (704-386-5681) as well. Ms Blacks recording gave this Shareholder Relations # (800-521-3984). Called it and spoke with Ms Renea. She stated that BAC was not making a Tender Offer, that LaTam was.
      I called ST. They are now informing us that it is indeed LaTam.

        Today was interesting...But it was tough...I spent most of the day watching airlines...UAUA -.06 QLD -.06 SKF +1.28 AMR +.10...But a gains a gain so I won't complain...I was telling everybody at the chat that the financials were a sucker punch early...Maybe I should start listening to my myself (SKF)...Of course I could always move to the Cayman Islands since my bailout tax dollars are helping the likes of the big bailout banks help people avoid US taxes...Did you hear how many US Financials have subsidiaries in CI today???...Doug

              Had to lower the criteria for the 14th time just to get 100.
              You can view the IIC 100 at:



              Using the original criteria established in 2004 we would have the IIC 17 this week.

              COCO, TNDM, BEAT, MYL, LNCE, WES, CPLA, ATAX, APEI, DMND, CSKI, MED, LPHI, VASC, ATHN, AMT, ANW

              One might think that the 17 should be the Top 17 on my list...This is not the case as I use a set of minimum criteria (mostly fundamental) just to make the list but I use different parameters to sort the list...Thanks, Doug

                Doug,
                Don't you agree that we are going to go much lower on the DOW? I'm looking at 6,000, but my sister's company paid a guy $12k to tell them 3,700. I'm coming to the conclusion that he may be right.

                      Tell her that for $10k I'll come and tell them 3,000 (or whatever else it is they want to hear).

                        This market is too tough and my time is short...Only traded the 2x Q etfs the last 2 days... 9 for 11...I'm not complaining altho the gains per share are not all that...My wife went to NYC today (PARTY TIME AT MR. BREAKOUT's HOUSE)...She called me this evening (After checking her trade emails) and said...Well, thanks for making me enough to pay for my Cab Fare to Brooklyn (Her sister's house) from JFK....I said 'You shouldn't be such a BIG tipper".
