AOL could cause economic meltdown! (From AOL thread) <g>

To give you all a little perspective. If AOL goes down below $100, can anyone tell me what would happen to all high PE stocks like EBAY,LCOS,YHOO,PCLN and AMZN?

Their stocks will go on a free fall....margin calls will be forced...online broker sites will melt-down.....investors will loose billions...many will file bankruptcy......consumer spending will slow to a crawl...businesses will incur millions of losses due to lack of
sales...earnings will drop.....layoffs will follow......unemployment will rise to double digits...and this precious economy will be in the toilet......


And I think he's serious.
