Anybody have any opinion on TWX.....I have been out of it since aol bought them, but I do like the company and feel eventually they will split aol off...and TWX by itself is a media giant and media is only going to grow as technology goes....been tracking TWX for awhile now....been pretty boring to be honest....but was wondering what opinions people had on it...me personally, if it was cheaper I would initiate another position, but again....been waiting for this massacre that hasnt happened, but I supspect will......and I do think TWX is another good long term hold that will survive, especially so if they spin off aol and turn it back into a seperate entity...any opinions..... So, who's buying what? who's selling what?...or is everybody kinda just in 'wait' mode?......I am long and also sitting on cash in 'wait' mode waiting for a buying massacre...writing calls on my longs if the premiums are worth it......I will say this...some of the stocks I own that pay hefty dividends have been a godsend...not only have they held up well in 04, but hefty dividends are very nice as well....I'd like to see INTC up their dividend to a reasonable level....would probably attract some different investors....More tech stocks need to offer dividends, imo....and get their option expenses worked out so the books are more realistic....Too many insiders of tech companies are getting rich on their stock options, while their stock is getting killed...just isnt fair...and it certainly skews many numbers when figuring TA.....

Still sitting around doing very little. holding just 2 stocks of any value. Got some 10 cent calls on NOK, now worth 25 cents. One call on Jnpr. So thats just enough to keep some interest going. Probably wont do anything significant until the election. So
