Vendit: After my somewhat modest investment in AOL a year ago, it has stealthily become my second largest holding (still well behind INTC), recently nudging out CSCO. Looks like I'll have to start following this thread. Good luck. Adam

You know what is interesting? A few months ago, Smart Money magazine was recommending a few stocks that they thought were too high, but that investors should look for an entry point when they fell and reached their target. Their target for AOL was about $85, and this was pre-split. That means there were a bunch of investors sitting there,waiting for AOL to fall down to about $43 post-split so they could buy. Can you imagine how they feel watching it fly away from them? With a good stock like this, you just have to buy it and let it sit while it decided it has rested enough and is ready to run.
