>>Mary Farrel was on CNBC and said that AOL was one of the >>companies to buy now since they did not have any Asian exposure. >>She also said that it was a possible takeover candidate. >>Something is cooking. She works for Paine Webber. Just mouthing the PW party line issued yesterday. No Asian exposure? What about companies that advertise on AOL?

One of my Lessons Learned (that I read before I purchase any new stock) is that when you start getting so much favorable media attention that it seems great, that this is usually the time to bail on a stock. Go look at the Fortune Fastest Growing 100 of 97 issue and see where #1 Global Marine (GLM) is now. I wish I had sold it all as soon as that Fortune issue came out. It was also CNBC, WSW, etc. that were talking up the oil drillers last Oct. & Nov. Talk about a brutal correction. Also look at the charts for CDG, UTI, PTEN, BDI, etc. When AOL is back down to 35, I will buy.
