<<starting to wonder how high this stock can go>> Then don't <ggg>. First of all...trying to guesstimate stocks like this will drive you crazy. Ask yourself a simple question - do you feel AOL is a good, strong long term hold ? If you answer yes, then there is no real reason to try and guesstimate where this will be in February, June and etc...It does not matter. Definately keep up with it and make sure you are aware of all news, estimates, reports and etc, but go to sleep at night with the firm knowledge that a few years from now you will have a considerable profit, and leave it at that. I mean a few weeks ago when AOL got into the $80's...everybody talked and guestimated......$100 by end of year and $100 - $120 by spring seemed to be the consensus opinions. Well 3 weeks later this thing busted thru $130 like a rabid gorilla. Spring....Ha ! I see a christmas tree in the other room ! Anyway....AOL will be a big long term winner. There will be rises and falls, upgrades and downgrades...good news and bad news....but 5 years from now, those that bought and held, will be happy campers. Have a great holiday and good luck in the new year. KG
