AOL is probably going up for reasons that have nothing to do with NSCP. I suspect the main reason is that AOL is one of the very few internet stocks with big enough market cap to be purchased by large mutual funds. These funds want to show they have some sort of internet exposure on the next quarter statement, so they are buying AOL. I stick by what I said concerning market reaction to large acquisitions, but of course there are always exceptions. I can't imagine that CTXS would raise cash to be purchased by someone else. If CTXS wants to buy something one would presume it would be in the area where they see the biggest opportunities, so video may be a good guess. Wireless? Would they be interested in hardware? I doubt it. Time will tell, but in the meantime profits are melting away like ice cream in July...
