Andy:

To the best of my knowledge (I remember that phrase fondly, during the watergate hearings <g>), AOL closed at 138, as per Schwab, Citibank.

Good luck

David

>>FIDELITY AND SI say the closing price is 138. Money line just said AOL closed up 6 at 123.

Both are right. Per Yahoo Finance, AOL closed at 123 with the time of the last transaction listed as 4:01PM. Later on, Yahoo changed the screen to 138 showing a transaction time of 5:16PM. For some reason, the quote services have locked in on the after market price of 138 as the close. Confusing but not an issue; tomorrow's opening price is the important thing. I'm thinking we'll see a stampede of momentum players in the AM.

Isn't this fun?
