People who have all their money in one stock tend to panic. There
may be too much at stake for them to keep their analytical
abilities. Also people who have all their money in one stock tend
to sleep less. They will have a shorter life to get rich in. So
even if you are right about your investment you may not enjoy
or benefit from the ride. AOL looks fine and so do many others
which I won't list since I loathe spamming. So yes, please
diversify.
By the way the discussions on this board, cable vs. DSL, seem
to have an unstated assumption i.e. the U.S. is the world.
Actually this U.S. cable/DSL battle affects at most a quarter of
the industrialized world. How is AOL doing in the rest of the
globe? If they can duplicate their U.S. performance outside the
U.S. then they really have it made; that's where the biggest part
of the market is.
