There was another article about AOL in Barrons, if I recall correctly. Somewhat more positive. I must confess, I hope AOL shoots up to 150 Tuesday -- so I can short it at the highest possible price. I'm still angry at my brokerage house for being unable to secure the shares for me to short at 117. Hoping to get another chance, but not holding my breath. Good luck to the longs in locking in fantastic profits (don't look a gift horse in the mouth). And to the shorts whose day (I tend to think) is about to come shortly. Anybody else notice this coincidence? Merrill Lynch pulls out of deal with Hambrecht and Quist (due to possible investigation over spinning practices) and Merrill Lynch is the only house to voice somewhat negative views on AOL's latest report.
