 PROFILE
Discount broker-dealer Ameritrade Holding lets you buy and sell by phone, fax, and Internet. The firm operates through several subsidiaries: Ameritrade, Accutrade, and Freetrade.com provide online, phone, and fax trading. Ameritrade Holding also operates OnMoney Financial Services, an online personal finance program. To attract professional investors, the firm has bought online brokerage TradeCast. The company has watched profits tumble as traders curtail online trades and sell the firm's stock in the aftermath of the "tech wreck of 2000." Still, it will expand its client base following its planned purchase of National Discount Brokers. Chairman Joe Ricketts and his family own about 65% of Ameritrade.
