Whether Market Goes Higher Or Lower, Some Stocks Still Win!

As worrisome as stock market action may be, it seems there could be an upside for some stocks, no matter if the next leg is higher or lower!

That’s because these volatile markets have sent trading volumes surging. In fact, Sandler O'Neill believes that the first quarter of 2009 could shape up to be the 2nd best trading quarter since the bubble.

And the volume surge is largely due to the retail traders getting back in the game, says Sandler O’Neill analyst Richard Repetto.

Smells like a trade.

Repetto tells Fast Money, “everyone thought the retail investor was dead but he’s back in the market. People didn’t think retail investors would return for years but they were wrong.”

And he says ultimately the online brokers win in the long run.

As a result he has a buy on Ameritrade [AMTD  Loading...      ()   ] , Charles Schwab [SCHW  Loading...      ()   ] and Think or Swim [SWIM  Loading...      ()   ] .
