According to Yahoo, AOL had sales of 5.72B during the past 12 months and they have a projected 5 year growth rate of 50.8%. TWX had sales of 27B during the past 12 months and a projected 5 year growth rate of 13.8%. So in 5 years, using these numbers, AOL/TWX will have annual sales of 95.3B which equates to a 5 year growth rate of 23.8%.

Basically the merger will leave us with a company growing at half the rate it is currently.

So, IMO, AOL has screwed its shareholders. Any other opinions?

Dear Chinmoy: The only thing I agree with in that post is that 42 would be a buy. Anyone ever check out Pisani's credentials for analysing the market and/or a stock? Let us know what you learn (haha). jdn

Who is Bob Pisani? Now we worry about a reporter that doesn't know his......? Not to say that AOL looks too good right now, even though it has recovered from todays low. By the looks of it it probably hasn't stopped bleeding, but Bob Pisani is the least of my worry.
