Stephen... you're right. My first top target was 128, but all it did was congest there. It could either be forming a base now for a further move up, or be in distribution preparatory to a larger move down.

I am cautiously looking for the distribution scenario to play out. This isn't uncommon with stocks that split after a big bull run. The splitting facilitates distribution from insiders/institutions to the public. With post-split prices being what they are, this effect may be muted somewhat in AOL's case. AMAT was a clear example of split-distribute-tank. It is possible here, but again, only one of two likely scenarios. We'll let the market tell us...

You are right ... its overvalued ... but ... unless the market corrects I don't see any great
sell-off in the near term. Heck, I think I'm even beginning to understand this stock !!.
Good trading/investing!


Stephen,

I am short AOL. I do not understand the stock. I wish you could explain it to me. I understood your TA but it would seem fundamentals should have a part in this too.

I see the same situation but even worse with YHOO and AMZN.
