> Just wondering what some choices for #2 would be I've been asking the same question even though my #1 isn't AOL. But I sure would be worried about any of the net stocks right now. I'd buy only if I knew my broker could put a long-term stop on the stock to sell it during a tumble. (And I wouldn't trust an online broker for that.) I just can't believe that the bubble won't burst. When it does there will be a bunch of great choices in the net stocks. AMZN needs to slough off a lot of stock value, but it is in the best position of all to continue to define retail e-commerce as it has for the past two years. (Just too bad that it became so overvalued through no real fault of its own.) YHOO? Only after a fall and only because it's a good "brand". And AOL. Of course. Its multi-faceted business plan makes it wonder off in many directions at once, but one or two of the initiatives are bound to work. It faces a bunch of huge bumps ahead which most folks seem to ignore, but AOL is a big, obnoxious bully that can knock over the bumps. And that seems to be a good trait for a business. I wouldn't bet against them in the long run.
