Harry, LOL at the Pru:

01/09/98 America Online Reiterated 'Buy' at Prudential (Bloomberg) -- America Online Inc. (AOL US) was reiterated ''buy'' by analyst Paul L. Merenbloom at Prudential Securities. The 12-month target price is $91.00 per share.

Let's see...that 3.5% on a 12-month investment. Sounds like a great deal!

Harry, Sam, John Et Al:
Sam's take on a 2:1 split looks good. AOL filings show a special shareholder's meeting for February (no day, just the month) with the sold purpose of increasing authorized shares from 300,000 to 600,000. Sounds like a two-fer to me

sec.gov

I would anticipate that as word of this gets around, all the Wade-Cookies who buy splits will push AOL up. Also AOL will keep up the deluge of PR releases to keep the stock as high as possible ahead of a split. Earning should be out at the beginning of February, so all this news--earnings, split, hype--will be coming out about the same time.
I still see $100/shr in AOL's future.
Best,
-Steve
