>Maybe you should be discussing this with Merrill Lynch AOL analyst > L. Fine who reiterated Merrill's near term accumulate(2) and long term > buy (1) rating on Nov. 26. All Stock brokers say all investments are for the long term. It's always their out. If their suggestions are wrong the tell you you didn't hold it long enough. >I got off Bloomberg. Print it out and pass > along to all you short/put option people. Send it to me. Tell me how AOL is not the New Buggy Whip company of America. The way to make money on this stock is on the down side. > AOL has momentum now, And when my technical indicators show the momentum is pooping out I'll be their with my put. Based on my near term indicators it looks like you are going down tomorrow. Looks like $26 is the next level down. It should be at that level within 10 days. > especially with the excite deal and former Compuserve subscribers now > signing up for AOL! Why go anywhere else for $14.95/19.95 month If price is the only thing that excites you, my local internet on ramp is $10 for unlimited service. What does AOL have that is worth $20 a month you can't get anywhere else? The local on ramps are going to continue to increase and lower the prices. More AOL information providers are going to jump ship and start their own web sites. AOL is doing the desperate man act. They are just selling themselves cheaper and cheaper as their information providers open more and more web sites of their own. Where will AOL get all this money to pay back stockholders all the freebee's they are giving away? Gaining market share without increased share value won't work in the long run. AOl has no propriatary information, no nich, nothing that is worth $20 you can get elseware on the net for free or soon to be free. TT
