Martin, Relax.....have a good weekend. All is fine. There is a rule that all investors should follow - If your worry is extreme, it is time to sell. I love AOL. It is one of a group of stocks that I think are no brainers. However, if one reaches a point in which they are too much on edge...too concerned about every hourly/daily move, then it is time to move to something you are more comfortable with...or lower your position in the stock(s) you are overly concerned about. This is a volatile market. AOL is not a paper company. It will be fairly volatile. What is ironic is that aol has actually become one of the more stable holdings I have. It used to be one of the most volatile, yet now $5 up or down is a big day. Compared to my other holdings...qcom, cmgi, jdsu and etc, aol and it's $5 moves are nothing worth getting excited about. With that said, AOL is still a must have, and it is exciting to think that aol is a buffer against my other high flyers. What I mean by buffer is plain and simple....no more $30 days. No more 1000% yearly gains. We're gonna have to settle for 100- 400% yearly gains for the next 5 years, but not many stocks are as good to hold....and buy on the dips. AOL is a winner any way you cut it.
