Tabler; AOL announcements mean only one thing to a company's fundamentals....they are getting worse! These "deals" only mean that the company, in this case SEVL, is buying space on AOL. Specifically, SEVL is giving AOL $$$$ in return for AOL letting customers go to SEVL's content. My reaction is so what? The customers still have to CHOOSE to go to SEVL's content. If they don't choose to, well AOL still gets their $$$$. These AOL and "portal" deals are great for AOL, YHOO, and XCIT, and death (in the long run) for the companies that enter into them. For example, look at Tel-Save (TALK) the very first company to enter into one of these deals. Anyway, I'm short SEVL now, and every time it rears its ugly head. Its a POS company. If it gaps over the weekend...great...time to short more. Thats why its important not to short 100% of a position on the first go, give yourself some room. Best regards!
