Some post headlines to read from AOL thread on Dec. 30 & 31 last year when AOL was getting added last year. You'll see there was a shakeout by the MM's on the 30th & 31st. (also I was wrong about the markets closing at 1:00; sorry) Seeing this may help people to be prepared for
what to possibly expect on Monday with YHOO.

150 has slipped and gone.

More AOL data to look at. Prices and volume from early Dec. to early Jan. '99 - Keep in mind that these are split adjusted.

Multiply stock price by 4, but divide volume by 4.
