E, some of the info on that sight is not in line with yahoo info.. So be careful. May be you are right ...... about aol. this chart shows 60 weeks return not 52 weeks. But some other info on that site is not consistant w. yahoo info. you can do the chart for 50 wks by yourself. techstocks.com finance.yahoo.com yahoo correctly calcualated aol pe which is approx 186pe based on past 4 qrts. while your site sez 398. price to sales is also wrong Based on AOL closing price of $129.563 on 10/29/99 Percentage price change year-to-date 67.0% Percentage change, last 52 Weeks 306.9% Price/Earnings Ratio (last 4 quarters) 398.5 THIS IS WRONG Price/Sales Ratio (last 4 quarters) 39.0 THIS IS WRONG Market Capitalization $167.78 billion

Sonny, I've owned my AOL for slightly more than one year now. My split-adjusted price (before this next one) is $26 and the closing price this Friday was $129.50. That is a 398% increase (nearly 5x my purchase price). I was tempted several other times to buy more AOL shares but for one reason or another I have not done so. Silly me. It's a reasonable time to be coming back to the market. My stocks have gone 'way down and come back up in the week and a half since I've been away. It's almost like I haven't been away. I liked the price rise in INTC. I am not sure why it went up like it did, but I will take it, along with the jump in CSCO. The upcoming reports from CSCO, HWP and DELL will determine what happens for the rest of the year, I'm afraid. I'm worried about HWP and DELL. CSCO should be reporting strong sales and earnings. -musea
