So how do we get in on this? Is there a guide somewhere? Can I setup an etrade account?

Fuck. Looks like its too late to get in. They stopped taking conditional offers at 5pm today. Damn it.
For future reference, Etrade will give you a taste on IPO's on newer accounts to keep you interested in trading. You get a limited buy and have to hold on to them for a certain length of time.
That's the great thing about ETrade. They underwrite a lot of IPOs and can get you some sweet deals if you hold some cash there.
Yeah, you can probably still get in on wensday when it goes public. Thats what I am planning to do.
if Mastercard's history is any indicator, this should be a good long. (mastercard up 300% from $46 closing price on IPO day!)

Just a thought:
This will probably be a bright spot in a dreary market. It might pop and make a good short for a little while.
If you do not get in early I would hold off until later.
BTW I am waiting until the options trade to buy some leaps and sit back for the ride.

Reminder this is tomorrow.
Im down for 5000 shares, going to hold long term for a hefty return(hopefully).
Visa's profit doubled to $424 million in the quarter ended Dec. 31 and revenue rose 76 percent to $1.49 billion. Revenue at Visa and MasterCard has climbed as consumers pay for more purchases with credit and debit cards instead of cash.

you must have the biggest dick in wallstreet
but sure, i dont know alot because im more consumed with other stuff... but something like this is a guaranteed return at least on the first day so why pass it up?
Damn, people definitely made some money off this shit today. How long are you guys gonna hold onto V for? Market is so sketchy these days.
You're gonna see this industry hit as hard as the mortagage industry. They're only going public to let others take the massive hit and try to survive in this recession soon to be renamed depression.
Why do you say that? Visa is a payment processing company. They make their money off of how many times people using their credit cards, not the interest that is earned from lending the consumers money. The banks have all of that responsibility.
