What's your opinion on this... is AOL peaked and will not have anymore big gains due to it's market cap? Ok, maybe 10 points to earnings, but after that...no? Peaked...no Slowing down...yes..I think having 2.2 billion shares outstanding will limit non-news related moves. Is this good or bad. Volatility will decrease making AOL a "safer" investment but in the long term I think this is a plus. Will we have moves like Qcom, CMRC, etc....no tc

AOL says it wants to be biggest and most respected company. To beat MSFT they have to double today's market cap. Don't you think Case and Pittman are way ahead of us on this linex/b2b/wireless/interactive TV stuff. They don't just run the railroad they are always building new track. The noise on AOL is dead quiet. Volume is always among top ten each day. Quiet before the storm. The Analysts who already ccall AOL #1 are going to "rediscover" it soon. When they have an announcement they will be able to market whatever it is to 21 million. They are the master marketing geniuses.They are sure to have something up their sleeves for new revenue streams. I am holding all of my position.
