That's an intelligent statement, Annette.
The difference is that AOL is a core holding of many large mutual funds, and those other net stocks are not. Plus, AOL isn't on the NASDAQ - so no SOES traders are in & ou of it like with AMZN or YHOO. Also, institutions can & do buy & sell stocks in 1000 share lots because the size of the bid & ask is often too small to execute blocks - that's why the 3rd market is block land.

This will be my last post on this thread -if you don't like discussion than why did you join SI?
Sorry if someone posting comments other than "I'm in AOL at 130, and its flying" pisses you off.

AOL is 144 now, up from a low of 135. My dancing shoes are still in the back of the closet though. I agree this is not AOL specific, it's a marketwide tech drop. With this aggressive of a drop, I don't think it will last very long before some bottomfeeders start jumping in.
