I see a 30 point drop in AOL in 3-5 trading days. I just saw a report that AOL has risen to almost 9 mil customer base. However increasing costs to supply the demand, coupled with the possibilty of having to eliminate the one price/unlimited feature, may cause a sudden downward flux in revenue, and customers. From what I hear, MSN is creating greater pricing pressure stratagies, developed along with their newer Beta interface that may render serious future competition for AOL.

Hey, let's be logical here. Dont' forget those whitewater papers in the back of that old car in Arkansas. I think there is a 35.1234% probability that Slick really did do something criminal. ;-) Barry

Gosh, I read that if the employment numbers are "bad" that it may be good for stocks somewhere today.....I didn't fathom it ....think it was briefing com.....the market as a big trader called it is overbought.....another group said it was "tired" and so poor ole AOL got caught in the wrong day at the wrong time with their news.......remember when INTC was downgraded just a few days ago (Monday) and it didn't mean a thing cause the market was on a crank? and you know there are those days a stock can't do anything right for the market cause it is bearish again? Now if AOL had been announcing this past Monday morning the results would have been different to some degree I believe. Autumn
