Hello JC Reddy, I think you are VERY optimistic. I am holding AOL and wonder if I should sell some time after christmas. Just a hunch. Maybe a little more than this. Got another perspective. Look at Deutsche Telekom, No. 3 worldwide. They get kicked in the aXX. over here in Germany by private providers, lost market share. but they have substantials, they are rich, they are big. Then look at the so far not very successful Global One alliance. Start thinking about Sprint (FON)and a role they could play together with Deutsche Telekom. Think what could happen... A friend talked to her Luxembourg based broker today who recommended to sell 75 of her AOL shares. Well, you may say, just an opinion. But there is this idea that somebody who appears to be VERY strong may still stumble when other big players attack. Let's watch and use our intuition. BRGDS Wolfgang
