Floor traders were looking for an order imbalance surge in AOL due to S&P listing. When that didn't happen, the leaders fell out of bed. Yahoo dove 10 pts. in seconds! When AOL leveled, I tried to unbox the thing at 329 then 328 just missed. Next minute it was 325! Two minutes later $321! Yikes!

Gary, you are right. I had Cnbc on for the past few hours and they reported 3 times today regarding to the above "anticipated" AOL actions.

The 200 shares switch was successful and I have again just the 300 shares box. Happy new year to you and all.

Looks like it did happen, right at the close. AOL 160, or am I seeing things?

Ebay is developing an international flare, FYI, but that too will level off. Congratulations
on the EBay short, boxing it will let you sleep a little better this weekend.


gw,

AMZN not being boxed is a concern but it may be a reaction to fear from the past<G> I saw AOL still be adjusted at 4:20 Eastern which is kind of comical. I left the computer then.
