Are you kidding AOL held up fantastic. O estimates are for Value Line estimate is at .14 Whisper is at .16 Yahoo came out with .21 which was 30% better than expected so I will go out on alimb here and say we will see .18 which is 30% better than expected. .18 With a 2-1 split for the record. I think the aol managment team like to split the stock as often as possible, so a 3-1 might prevent two splits a year.

AOL's Earnings.....Here's a quote taken from Keith Benjamin, Internet Analyst from BancBoston Robertson Stephens, on 1-8-99 regarding AOL's upcoming Earnings Report: <<We believe the December quarter will be the best in AOL's history across all metrics.>> Concensus is .14....Whisper is .16, but I'm very certain they will handily beat that. Regards, George

AOL without preannouncing has all but said they had a blow out quarter if you have been watching interviews by the company executives. Also, go back and read Mary Meekers article in Barrons, a couple of weeks ago about the Inet growth in general and sales projections/growth over the holiday season. AOL's subscriber base continues to grow. Sales over Christmas increased some 300% by customers buying through AOL. With the Bell Atlantic deal, AOL continues to morph and adapt pushing the envelope. The conference call will be upbeat-the veil of gloom and doom will lift for investors. The nervous nellies and weak hands that left will now want back in. The price action will be brisk. The shorts will feel the squeeze and cover. All in all, 99 will be another great year for AOL. I believe we will see the 200's in February. Consider the AOL April 150 calls. Regards,
