				Visa (V) ---who owns it?
			 Im in at 64 and HOLDING...Its 86 now....I say it will be up to $1000 a share by 2010. Thats 10 times or more. Im just a dumb moron. But Mastercard did it. went from $39 a share to $315 a share in 2 years since going public. went public in may 2006. Visa is bigger that mastercard. The furthur we go in time the less people use cash. Everyone charges everything. Can't wait to see the christmas numbers this year with how expensive gas it. I been shopping online forever as we all do here but every year the rest of the morons catch up. Its so much cheaper to shop online. 1+1 =2 and there isnt a safer get rich investment you can buy.  When i bought 2 weeks after being public yahoo reports showed 0% mutual ownership. 1 motnh ago it was 7%. Now its 16%. Even FIDELTY FAMILY OF FUNDS owns 1 billion or more worth of stock. These numbers will just grow and grow. Mutuals dont sell shares. They hold shares. Less shares available higher the price. http://finance.yahoo.com/q/mh?s=V Im 45 and been following a newsletter since late 80's. The same 1. They hold up to 12 stocks at a tome. This was there report on tues night Visa (V) rallied 30% from its breakout to its peak, and then dropped as much as 17% before finding support yesterday. We certainly feel the pain when a holding suffers through such a decline, but historically, this type of breakout-correction-support pattern is not unusual. Moreover, we view V as a gauge of sorts for the overall market; if this stock truly breaks down, then it's likely the market is in trouble. So far, the action is acceptable "Moreover, we view V as a gauge of sorts for the overall market; if this stock truly breaks down, then it's likely the market is in trouble. " So, to be able to buy stock in a company that has no downside---they are not a bank--they make money per tranaction---they have 0 risk.... My thought is i am just an average guy and this is a way to get rich... Mastercard did it.....Why wont VISA... |

				 | $1000 a share??   Dude, they made profits of $314 million. And a market capacity of $83,3 Billion. Now here is the magic: Exxon Mobil: Profits: $11.66 billion (last report) On market capacity of $468.51 Billion. Maybe you can flip for 2 years, but give it 10-years and I doubt it.

				 | If you put $100,000 in mastercard stock, may of 2006, at present your value would be close to 1 million dollars.  The true way to make a killing is to keep buying shares as your profits increase and buy more on dips... |

				 | You make a good point about gas.  As prices go up less people have that much cash on them to pay in cash when they fill up. |

 Sagi...the man with brains...hope things are well... Thats true but not my point...55% percent of people pay for gas with CC. That will definetly go up... Point is commen sense says its so expensive to go out---go shopping---go anywhere---cheapest place to be is home---when you order on line you use no gas-----this year as every year has been christmas online shoppers get bigger numbers every year. Can you imagine this year...Everyone will figure out --BUY ONLINE---how do you pay CREDIT CARDS | |

				 | i'm not saying you're an idiot, but you gatta look at the information given... 7 times more shares then MA is HUGE, you can't say because MA went 9x then V will do the same, it doesn't work like that... if you look at it, MA at $300 a share is cheaper now then V at $85 a share... I own alot of shares of Visa too, but I am realistic about it... once they pass Olympics, pass few more earning reports and beating them out of the water, join with Visa Europe, pay dividends, buy back 300mill shares ONLY THEN it might hit 200-400, you're out of your mind if you think it's going to 1000 |

				 | i got in on the first day even though it went up so fast only the "insiders" got the IPO cost, but i think my buy was around 60 or high 50's, dont matter too much as this stock will go higher and higher, then split, go higher go higher, split again.. right now i am up 50% on it ;) |

 Not sure how you are...not sure if you invested in early 90's......but I believe we are entering the same period..... Bought new contruction in 1991 and sold at 10% in 1998......bought a townhouse before that and owned for 3 years and lost money on it. we are living through same times... People with cash made FORTUNES in 90's.... So many companies went up 20-30 times original value in a few years...You couldn't pick a bad stock...And the LEADERS were the IPO'S REAL ESTATE AND STOCK MARKET are 100% opposites | |

				 | some analysts say the cc industry is going to pop next year like the mortgage industry did this year  - most of their loans are junk with no hope of repayment - i assume they went public to cash out before the crash ... |

				 | gatta love people who have no idea about the stock and talk like they know wtf they're talking about... Visa and MA DOESN'T LOAN ANY money, they just take fees for every transaction !!! if somebody charges back, or doesn't pay money banks handle that, NOT cc companies... |

 Yes, and no. I own some FUNDS that are larger....but no single stock. Of course, for full disclosure, I got out of the stock market completely about a year ago and have recently started back into it slowly. I have never claimed to be an expert in the field....but if it makes you feel any better, I manage my fathers life savings (it is actually less money than my house, but it is all he worked for all of his life and I am intent on not fucking it up) but when I bought V originally I did not buy for him because I was afraid of him losing anything on it. I spent about 15% of his holdings on it today and that is saying a lot. I have been averaging a conservative 5-7% on his stuff because I would not take any chances...but today I went out on a limb because I still think it will be at least $150 by the end of the year. --T | |

				 | Here is my take on the industry as a whole.  As long as the market does not crash altogether then I think V will be OK.  If the entire market crashes, so too will Visa....but if we end up in a full blown recession or even a depression, Visa and MC should be alive and kicking.  The worse the economy is, the more people will rely on CCs and the more they use their CCs the more money V makes.   What most people do not realize is that Visa has no risk. They do not loan any money and they have no incentive to collect any bad debts. The funny thing is they get paid no matter what. When you buy something on Visa, they get a cut. When you pay your bill, they get a cut. If you pay your bill late, they get a bigger cut. If you get an over-the-limit fee, they get a cut of that, too. Hell, if you file bankruptcy and only pay PART of the bill, they still get a cut. Everything to them is a transaction. No matter what, Visa gets a cut of the money. You gotta love a great business model. ;) --T |
