Your reasoning seems circular!

But do you think AOL after it splits will run to next split level as fast as it did this time? It probably won't because they got good press from the S&P 500 and something as trite as a Tom Hanks movie... But I think many will run to buy at what they think is an "affordable" price....and it will go up.... :-) Annette

I assume your numbers are accurate, but I do not afree with the reasoning of your argument. All growth rates are not created equal...Dis is a cyclical company and therefor usually is awarded a lower pe than a typical growth company...A better comparison might be withg a growth company such as cisco or microsoft or oracle....I would be interested to see how these would compare usuing your analysis. AOL is expected to grow much quicker than any of those companies both from a revenue and earnings point of view.
