Credit card company about to get smacked by the credit crunch

Capitol One lends to people who cannot pay their credit cards with the hope they actually will make tons of money on outrageous fees that others will not be able to afford.

Credit card debt will be the next crisis

I have done business with these guys and they have no soul. OK my emotions are at play, maybe not smart of me but I know many other people with the same experience. For that reason alone (principal) I say they will underperform.

COF is a monster, I think we'll see a lot of growth out of this company for some time. This stock should be selling at 120 by next year

Credit cards are the next to go - what's in your Tier1?

Why did the stock go down to this level? There's no good reason, and its an excellent buy at this level.

Sub 10 PE for an industry leader in credit cards. They just bought out two large regional banks and with that will lower their cost of funds. That means increasing margins. Buy this one and hold it....

Good price for a great company.

I love financially sound companies that have been beaten down this much. As of year end, COF had a tangible common equity ratio of 5.57%, and a Tier 1 capital ratio of 13.6%. While these will likely decline through 2009, COF remains one of the best capitalized financial companies.
Capital One is making money. Excluding the goodwill impairment, which is possibly the least useful item on a GAAP statement, net income for 2008 was $2.28 per share.
Capital One said today that its card loss rate hit 9.3%, hopefully setting it up to report a big loss next week, providing a better price point to buy. I don't believe this one is going out of business, and when the economy recovers, this could be a 5 bagger, even from todays price of $17.
