E*Trade Investment

You may have noticed that I have not posted on technical or business topics lately. The reason for that is because I am working at Wal-Mart in Bentonville, and the work that we are doing here is somewhat confidential. Also, even though I am learning about the Wal-Mart ethos, I do not think it is appropriate for me to share my observations. Lastly, the work that we are doing here is not unusual or groundbreaking.

One thing from a portfolio/business note is that I purchased shares of E*Trade. I bought the because I think they are attractively valued in terms of their growth and because they are a true innovator in their market. This is a weird investment for me because I actually use E*Trade for most of my financial services. I may post an “analytical” note sometime in the future.
