jmac "And, this has been very painful" I believe you remember this chain of events: April 99 AOL hit a high of ~ 172,in Sept.99 it hits a low of ~83.A ~ 51 % loss. In Dec 99 it hits a high of 92(184 2-1 split adjusted)for a gain of ~7%. In summation a 51% loss was turned into a 7 % gain in the space of 7 months.My point being that all is not lost when a good stock corrects.Can Q do the same? History will provide the answer. In fairness I should point out that AOL has retreated from its high rather severely.Having said that,the opportunity presented itself to exit unscathed. Cheers Ed
