TO ALL : The talk on this thread is really amazing. When AOL is flat or down slightly, everybody asks " whats wrong ?? " Many people even resort to getting upset and/or stressed out over it. When it moves like it did at the close yesterday...everybody reverses position and wonders what wonderful deal is in the works. Who knows...maybe a deal is brewing. It certainly wouldn't be a surprise as AOL ALWAYS is working on something big. We know cable is forthcoming and Netscape closing and etc, etc.......AOL is always working on something. My point is, if there is one stock in most of your portfolio's that you simply do not have to worry about, it is more then likely AOL. Just forget about it. Let it do what it will, and you will be very happy campers in the long run. Yes, it's fun to follow and fun to talk about, but getting yourself in a tizzy because the market is up 200 and aol is onl;y up 1/8 is ridiculous. AOL will outperform the market. Period ! AOL was very near it's high the other day...when most everything else was correcting, AOL held it's own. Let AOL breather a little. They can't go up $4 everyday. Also, giving yourself a heart attack wondering what the next deal is, won't do a thing for you. Robert....man, calm down...go kiss your wife or something. Getting yourself that hyped up is only cause for a letdown and or dissatisfaction when they finally do announce something. Anyway...my advice to all is spend your time worrying about your other stocks and let AOL give you a nice smooth ride to hefty long term profits. Good Luck to all KG
